Alfajor de Frutos Rojos y Dulce de Leche
Desserts
Alfajor de Frutos Rojos y Dulce de Leche by Dulce de Leche & Co. is a contemporary variation of the traditional Argentine alfajor. Its filling combines creamy Argentine dulce de leche with red berries sourced from Patagonia. The dulce de leche contributes a smooth texture and pronounced dairy sweetness. The berries introduce delicate acidity and a distinctly fruity character.
This tartness reduces the perception of sweetness and gives the filling a more balanced profile. The alfajor is fully coated with a layer of dark chocolate. Its cocoa intensity and mild bitterness complement both the caramelized milk and the fruit. Each bite combines creamy, fruity and chocolate elements. The flavor develops from the sweetness of dulce de leche to the acidity of the berries and finishes with deeper cocoa notes.
The combination connects two characteristic Argentine ingredients within a modern confectionery format. It represents one of the more unconventional alfajores in the company’s assortment.
