Mango Pastel de Tres Leches or Mango Three Milk Cake … Daring Bakers soak up cake!
Three-Milk Cake it is a super moist, light, airy and super delicious sponge cake soaked in the three kinds of milk (evaporated milk, condensed milk, and heavy cream).

After all, we’ve been there, done that … and we know better! The lines from Tennysons ‘The Charge of the Light Brigade’, which we studied in school eons ago, flood my mind often, especially the word ‘reason‘! I really do like the lines now.

{No Bake/Vegetarian Dessert} TROPICAL FRUIT VERRINES… Stoned this summer!
“Give me book, fruit, French wine, and fine weather and a little music out of doors played by someone I do not know” John Keats We’ve been stoned nice and proper this summer!

A few days ago, my favourite fruit-vendor promised me another week of peaches. Just when I heaved a sigh of relief that I still had time, and there was really no need for…
