Trader Joe’s Sweetens the Table with Tres Leches Cake

Tres leches cake is as quintessentially Latin American a dessert as you’ll ever find. Broadly beloved across cultures ranging through North, Central, and South America, a classic tres leches is typically made with a light, airy sponge cake that’s been soaked with a mix of three kinds of milk: heavy cream, evaporated milk, and sweetened condensed milk. That, plus a crowning layer of whipped cream, is the formula Trader Joe’s Tres Leches Cake, follows in a quick, convenient, thaw-and-serve tribute to this classic confection.

Sweet, soft, and refreshing with every dairy-saturated bite, our Tres Leches Cake comes frozen and only requires a few hours resting at room temperature (or an overnight stay in your refrigerator) before it’s ready to serve. We find that it makes an ideal dessert option for the spring holidays, especially when adorned with slices of your favorite fresh fruit, or even just a quick sprinkling of cinnamon powder. Enjoy as an after-dinner, after-brunch, or after-anytime treat with a cup of coffee or black tea.
