Takes me back to South American delicious dolce de leche days . Decadent creamy cake to be savoured slowly by the fork full. Also the ultimate comfort food. We had the spoils for breakfast the next day with fresh raspberries .

Amazing ❤️ our favourite cake and was a huge hit at the baby shower. We got the 4 layer,25cm option and it definitely went the mile for the shower. Lots of comments on it and I think you’ll have a few visitors to grab some more in the future ❤️
