How to Make Tres Leches Cake

[jerichocaeser]

I made this cake last night and had it today, it was the most incredible thing I have ever had. Sweetened condensed milk is the best.

[pastryparrot1]

@jerichocaeser Yay! I am so happy this worked for you! Thank you very much for stopping by!

[pastryparrot1]

@SenorPipaDeLaPaz Hola amigo mio! Go ahead and use heavy or whipping cream. As always, thank you so much for your support and for trying out my food! You rock!

[Richard0079]

[pastryparrot1]

[pastryparrot1]

@jinxonlygirl Thanks for coming by!

[IMKINDASHY611]

@jinxonlygirl lol hahaaha thats so funny that you say that cause my grandma always buys tres leches for every birthday or party!! I was smiling so hard with your comment cause its so true!

[jinxonlygirl]

@xdeathisrightherex, it's ment to be that way...

[StrawberrySpeaks]

Oh and how much time would that be???(;

[pastryparrot1]

@StrawberrySpeaks I really am not sure. It will depend on the cream but plan on whisking for a good 20 minutes!

[StrawberrySpeaks]

Oh and one more question will it take forever to whisk it????(;

[pastryparrot1]

@StrawberrySpeaks It will take a while. Make sure your cream is very, very cold. That will make things easier!

[StrawberrySpeaks]

Kk thanks.. Oh and wonderful videos

[pastryparrot1]

@StrawberrySpeaks Thanks!

[StrawberrySpeaks]

What if I don't have a mixer can I use a wisk oh and I don't have vanilla

[pastryparrot1]

@StrawberrySpeaks Go ahead and use a whisk! No problem! No worries about the vanilla either! Thanks for watching!

[mightylow91]

I don't have cream could I use whole milk?

[pastryparrot1]

@mightylow91 That should be OK since you are mixing it with the evaporated and condensed milk. Thanks for coming by!

[guitartramp]

Thank you for all of your awesome recipies!! You are a wonderful person.

[pastryparrot1]

@guitartramp Thank yo so much! That is very kind. I am happy my recipes work for you. Thank you very, very much for your support. It is truly appreciated! Have a wonderful weekend!

[artziphartzi]

[pastryparrot1]

[AnndisKitchen]

hey chef

[ZennLa3]

ghetto cake

[googo151]

@ZennLa3 great ghetto cake!

[xdeathisrighttherex]

reduce the liquid. it was falling apart O:

[SenorPipaDeLaPaz]

@xdeathisrighttherex lol, its how it is, thanks for the laugh :)

[azteca305]

It came out pretty good & got several compliments. However, I messed up twice. First, I used whipping cream instead of heavy cream. The video ask for 1 C of cream but did not specify what kind of cream. Next the cake did not absorb all the liquids (milk). I made plenty of holes (w/ a fork) any recommendations for next time?

But it was delicious!! I am new subscriber & love your recipes-Thanks!!!

[pastryparrot1]

@azteca305 Good morning! I am happy this worked for you - almost! I don't think the cream should of been a big deal and I really don't understand why the cake did not absorb the liquid if it had plenty of holes. Hummmm . . . I will have to think about that one! Thank you so much for your support! I am very blessed! Have a great day!

[Belivehim1]

[pastryparrot1]

@Belivehim1 Caramel glaze - on this - HEAVENLY! Thanks for coming by!

[twilightzonejude]

When u say cream . Do you mean Heavy cream ?

[simis7]

I made a while back and some of my hispanic friends loved it and complimented better than some cakes they've had at bakeries ! :-)

[pastryparrot1]

@simis7 Yay! I have to make this again! Thanks for letting my know!

[pastryparrot1]

@aldomila09 Thanks! I am happy you like it!

[calicold21]

This video just tickled me the way you talk just made me feel like mi tía was showing me how to make this.This video was such a delight <3

[pastryparrot1]

@calicold21 Thank you! I really appreciate the comment!

[PreTTyMooVieMakER]

what kind of cream? like sour cream or whip cream pleese reply asap>:}

[pastryparrot1]

@PreTTyMooVieMakER You will need to use whipping cream, not sour cream. Thank you so much for coming by!

[chavamma]

1 question how do you flip that bitch over without breaking it? or cracking into pieces??? If you want to put in on a plastic cover to give away??

[pastryparrot1]

@chavamma ah . . . good morning! You obviously cannot flip that cake once it is moist with all of the milk. Here are your options: a) you make the cake in a disposable cake pan and give it away in that or b) you bake the cake, take it out of the pan and put it into a container with sides and then soak it. I would probably opt for the first one. Easier ans not nearly as messy! Thanks for coming by!

[stelthmunky]

I've decided I like you; You actually reply to your comments and that- a little goes a long way.

Thanks for uploading the video. Very convenient and easy on the wallet.

[pastryparrot1]

@stelthmunky Thank you for coming by! I really appreciate you watching. Have a wonderful day!

[veurana]

[pastryparrot1]

@veurana My pleasure! Thank you for trying it out! Have a wonderful day!

[KryJoe]

thank you thank you!!!! i made it and it was Delicious :D

[pastryparrot1]

@KryJoe YAY! I am sooo happy! Thank you for trying it out!

[sweetlilbuny16]

what happens if u put the 'milk' right after u take the read out of the oven? does it HAVE TO COOL down??

[pastryparrot1]

It is better that you cool it down. You do not want the milks to curdle with the heat. Thanks for coming by!

[mukwah1111]

Great idea using the boxed cake mix for the Tres Leches. I discovered Tres Leches cake when I was living in the states. Here in Canada there is no such thing. Up until recently our Mexican food was T----Bell.....imagine that !! Thks for the great recipe ! Good to meet you and become inspired. Shine on !

[pastryparrot1]

You will love this . . .

[chocolatepoundcake]

Ohhh..I wish I could eat this...I shouldn't due to my insulin...maybe I'll make it one day for a special event! :)

[diggs1976]

[pastryparrot1]

Thank you for coming by!

[cozzyk]

LOL I thought I was be creative this morning when I threw an old bannana in my little cake mix ;). This looks devine.

[pastryparrot1]

Thanks! Easy huh? Have a great day!

[Heathmah]

This looks very good :)

[pastryparrot1]

It's a super moist cake and a great dessert. Super easy to make as well which is always a plus!

[atticus9799]

I haven't had a Tres Leches cake since I moved from Arizona. Forgot how good they are. I am gonna have to make one of these soon. I can almost taste it now! Thanks Maryann!  Noreen

[pastryparrot1]

I sure is tasty! Your recipes look amazing as well. I will have to make those!

[prettyinpunk666]

This looks like it would taste something like a glazed donut. I've been putting off making this, now I have to!

[pastryparrot1]

Its better! Bon appetit! Thanks for watching!

[jjg32f44]

(by the way, my question was reffering to the cream you used in the cake, not the whipped topping- thanks!)

[pastryparrot1]

Absolutely! Heavy cream works beautifully! Bon appetit! Thanks for watching!

Mary Ann

[jjg32f44]

what kind of cream is it? I have heavy whipping cream, would that work?

[theeSHXT]

omggg, you're awesome for this! my mum used to make this allllll the time when i was little (she's dominican), but alas, i've moved out, and am forced to learn the dominican cookbook from scratch haha.

[pastryparrot1]

So there you go! Now you can make your own in no time at all! I am very happy you likes it! Thanks for watching and commenting! Have a great night!
