    I did this tres leche cake for my parent's anniversary on Saturday. I was able to do it as a layered cake using 3- 8" pans. I only added baking spray with flour and parchment paper in the pan so I could flip it easier (didn't want to take any chances of it breaking). Then I added strawberry filling and covered it with the whipped topping from this recipe (had to make 2 batches of the topping to cover it completely which I also did small flowers with a wilton tip. I have never decorated a cake before let alone tried to do layers. It came out awesome!!! Everyone loved it and thought I had bought the cake. Very moist!
    Made sure to use a plate that was deep so it will catch all the milk that slowly dripped off the cake. Also made sure to keep it in the fridge as long as possible before the party.
    Thank you !!!!!!!

    This is the best of them all; I have made it before and I will make it again this Friday, my son asked me if I could make him one for him to take it to the office because everyone is bringing something, and I can’t wait to make it. God bless you and thank you mam, this is the best tres leches receipt, I make some caramel as well to put it on top it tests lovely with caramel too.😘

    I'm a 14 year old student taking culinary classes in my high school and this was my first big cake recipe that I've tried for Mother's Day. It came out great!!! I didn't have the machine to beat the whipping cream so I had to do it with a whisk and it came out amazing. Plus I just started watching your videos definitely subbing!👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

    When I was at school my bro was begging me to come with him because he wanted to buy me this "three milk cake" (there is a cooking class which makes food you can buy on Thursdays during lunch) and I kept saying no because it sounded disgusting to me and I got really annoyed and finally just said fine.... It literally was one of the *best* cakes I had ever tried. Thanks for the video! For sure going to try to bake this!

    Just made this, didn’t change a thing and it was DELICIOUS!!! I made Alton Brown’s version and it was too dense and WAY too sweet. This cake is light and airy, the tres leches are perfectly rich and sweet, and the whipped cream topping is rich with just the right amount of sugar.
    You just earned a sub! 🤙🏼
    Merry Christmas and Feliz Navidad!

I wish I can post the pic. Even his friends commented, "what a delicious cake, never had it homemade cake this good before".. So, I owe you, THANK YOU.. 😊

Her and her husband both said it tasted just like the cakes in Mexico, they loved it, and so did my husband and I. It will definitely be a new favourite here!!!

    Delicious!! I’ve made this cake twice this week! Also some people have asked about the baking powder-I searched a bit but couldn’t find an answer so I just added the
    1 1/2 teaspoon as written & it was fine. My oven baked this in 25 min. Next future attempt will be to make it double layered in two 9in round molds. Any ideas welcome. Thanks for the video!

    I tried this recipe two nights ago for a bake sale we did at work. I have to say not only does the recipe result in a beautiful and delicious cake, I also gave my mother a slice to try and now she's asked me to bake her one just for herself! haha It turned out so well. Thanks again for a great recipe. I'm always intimidated by baking, but this turned out beautifully!

    The cake came out super delicious !!! i made it for my husband on tuesday for his birthday and everyone loved it , i did have a few little problems , like trying to make the whites fluffy and the whipping cream was comming out good until i noticedthat it was looking more like cottage cheese , good thing i bought two pints of whipping cream 😉 .. Anyway thank you so much for the recipe WE LOVED IT!!!

    • @sweetsandbeyond
      @sweetsandbeyond  9 років тому +1

      daniela blanco Make sure to wipe down your beaters with vinegar then rinse them, to take any residual grease that they could have. If the cream looked like cottage cheese, you turned the cream into butter. I hope this helps for the next time!
