Alfajor…deliciousness with a manjar middle and covered in powdered sugar.

Basically a fried donut with manjar (dulce de leche/caramel) ooozing from the center!

Budín de Pan…a dense, baked bread made from milk, egg, and bread; filled with surprise raisins and topped with powdered sugar.

A little apple pie!! (It has a different name here, but I forget)
-
-
Postre con crema pastelera!!! By far my favorite filling. It is like a custard and it is sooo good!
-
-
Here is a picture of Suspiro de Limeña!! It is comparable to the flavor and consistency of sweetened condensed milk…but really really good!

-
Torta Tres Leches…literally translated “three milk cake.” A white cake with, I am assumming, three types of milk in it. Not really sure, but it is very yummy.

-
Another version of the alfajot…these are very common and sold everywhere!

My favorite cake yet!! Torta de Siete Sabores…Seven Flavors Cake!! I can’t name all the flavors though, but some are: chocolate, manjar, pineapple, like a waffle cone/waffer layer, and three more! My homework for myself is to figure it out…which means I will be eating another piece in the near future and investigate!
Here is a look at the different sweets there are. There is not a lot of chocolate, but there sure is a lot of pastry-type things. They are cheap and very delicious, therefore, very dangerous!!! But I always justify it by telling myself, if I walk to buy pandulce (or whichever sweet it may be) at the store and walk back home, then it is even! Eventually I want to try everything at least once, and at this rate, I will definitely accomplish that in these eight months.
