Trivia: Tres leches cake is soaked in three types of what?
Chocolate
Liqueur
Milk
Fruit juice
The correct answer is Milk
So why is this answer correct? : Tres leches, meaning “three milks” in Spanish, is a light sponge cake that is baked and then soaked in three types of milk: evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and whole milk (or heavy cream). The cake soaks up the milk to create a rich, dense dessert. While various Latin American countries claim to have invented the cake, most historians believe Nicaragua is its place of origin. Regardless, tres leches cake is popular throughout Mexico, Central America, and parts of the Caribbean.
