Tres Leches Cake

Bring a taste of Latin American luxury to your next celebration with our heavenly Tres Leches cake. While this iconic flavor is a rare find in Christchurch, it is a beloved classic across Latin America, and Dhi and our team have crafted a version that is truly exquisite and designed to be the centerpiece of your gathering.

The soul of this dessert is a delicate vanilla cake, which we pair with the traditional "three milks" combination of fresh milk, cream, and sweetened condensed milk. In a departure from the traditional soak, our artisan version utilizes the tres leches as a rich, decadent filling. This technique ensures that the cake maintains a beautiful, structured crumb while delivering an incredibly creamy and silky texture in every bite.

For those new to this flavor, it is important to note that our Tres Leches is never soggy; instead, it offers a sophisticated, milky sweetness that is light yet deeply satisfying. It is an elevated dessert experience that brings a unique, international flair to your table.

Every Tres Leches cake is meticulously handcrafted to order with the finest ingredients, ensuring it arrives at your celebration fresh and looking spectacular. Secure this unique delicacy for your next birthday or event by ordering online today for scheduled pickup from our patisserie inside The Welder.

Dietary and Allergen Advice

This product contains: Eggs, Wheat, Gluten, and Milk

While our team takes all necessary steps to minimise the risk of cross-contamination, traces may occur due to our kitchen being small and without ‘exclusive’ production areas for all of our different recipes. It's for this reason that I can't currently meet the needs of people with serious food allergies,

Layer Cake Questions

Please read our FAQs page for an even more exhaustive list.

How many people will each size feed?

When choosing the size of cake, it's hard to say exactly how many people it will feed, but as a general guideline:

  • 15cm - provides 12-15 servings
  • 20cm - provides 20-25 servings
  • 25cm - provides 30-35 servings
Can you write something on the cake?

Yes, if you leave a note we can write something short e.g. "Happy Birthday Sam"

No Added Dairy/Gluten?

Due to recent NZ food labelling updates, I cannot claim any of my items are 'gluten-free' or 'dairy-free', only that I have not added any gluten or dairy containing ingredients.

While some of our products are made without allergen-containing ingredients, they are produced in a shared kitchen where allergens are present.

Therefore, we cannot guarantee they are safe for individuals with severe allergies.

Can I change something about the cake? e.g. decorations or ingredients

Get in touch with me if you have concerns about a specific item in a cake and we can see if we can accomodate.

We don't make custom cakes so cannot make new recipes for customers, only potentially omit ingredients or make minor changes.

Can you make me a custom cake?

Apologies but I don't make custom cakes, so cannot create something for you that's not listed on the menu.

Is it ok if we need to store it?

Yes, all of our cakes and desserts can be safely stored in the packaging we give you for 1-3 days without any change in taste or texture.

If you anticipate storing for more than this, it's best to freeze in an airtight container, however note that some of our decorations may crack from being frozen due to the expansion effect of moisture freezing.

Please let them come to room temperature before eating for the best experience.
