I grew up eating this dessert and it’s one of my favourites. It is called arequipe in the region of Antioquia, Colombia, Manjar Blanco in other parts of the country and in the rest of South America it has different

names such as dulce de leche, manjar Blanco and cajeta. In Colombia we serve arequipe with obleas or saltine crackers or just as a base for some typical desserts.
