Tres Leches (Spanish for 3 Milks) is a dense, incredibly moist Sponge Cake that is soaked in a mixture of 3 different kinds of Milks. The Cake is then typically topped with Whipped Cream and sometimes garnished with fresh Berries or a Dulce de Leche drizzle.
While Tres Leches is the widely recognised Latin American name for a light, airy Sponge Cake soaked in a mixture of evaporated, condensed milks and heavy cream. The term 'Milk Cake' is simply the literal English translation often used to describe the exact same delicious Dessert.
Unlike traditional Cakes, a Tres Leches sponge is typically made without heavy Butter or Oil. And instead relying more on whisked Eggs for it's rise and light texture. The 3 different milk mix gives the Cake it's soft special texture that just melts in your mouth. It's the most simplest and the easiest Dessert that can be whipped up on special occasions and festivals. I treated my family and friends with this super moist, beautiful looking sponge cake on Bakra Eid. The traditional Sheer Khurma wasn't made due to the hot weather. And instead chose this and other baked Desserts for the Eid celebrations.
Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Steps
- 1
Whip egg whites and yolks separately with sugar to incorporate maximum air volume. Next is to gently fold them with flour and baking powder. Bake until golden.
- 2
Allow the baked cake to cool slightly. Then pierce it repeatedly all over using a fork, skewer or a chopstick.
- 3
Whisk the condensed, evaporated and whole milks together and slowly pour the mixture evenly over the entire surface of the cake.
- 4
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4-5 hours or better still overnight to let the liquid fully distribute through the crumb.
- 5
Spread fresh whipped cream over the top just before serving finishing it off with sliced berries. Or as is. Enjoy!
