A method for preparing a modified version of the traditional Latin American dessert is presented. This variant caters to individuals with dietary restrictions by eliminating gluten, a protein composite found in wheat, barley, and rye. The resultant baked good retains the characteristic moist texture achieved through the saturation of a sponge cake with three types of milk: typically evaporated milk, condensed milk, and heavy cream or whole milk.
This adaptation allows those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities to enjoy a culturally significant dessert. The development and refinement of such recipes have broadened the accessibility of diverse culinary experiences. Furthermore, it highlights the ongoing innovation within the food industry to meet the evolving needs and preferences of consumers.
