Trés Leches Wedding Cake

It's almost summer.. no more snow for sure. The skies were perfectly blue yesterday, not a cloud in sight, a perfect day for a small intimate wedding, with a perfectly light and flavorful cake.
Trés leches means 'three milks': condensed, evaporated and whole milk. The buttery sponge was soaked in the milks overnight a little rum was added, a little, and 4 layers were put together with sweetened whipped cream, so technically quattro leches!
The wedding couple wanted the cake decorated with berries, a nice edible touch, sprinkled with granulated sugar for effect, goes to show, you don't always need flowers.

We posted the recipe last year on the blog, check it out:

  1. How did you stack the two without it falling apart. Tres leches is so fragile.
