    Are you?

    If we count whole, 2%, 1%, and skim as 4 distinct leches, what’s to stop us from creating a gradient of leches ranging from 0% to 3.25% milk fat?

    Infinidad Leches

      I didn’t want to show my hand, but off the record, I’ve experimented with Norwegian beaver milk and Mongolian camel milk to achieve in vitro samples of sesenta y tres leches. Admittedly, it’s highly unstable and there have been casualties. Such is the price of progress.

      That’s a good point. It seems to be an infinite series that should converge on one value of leche. If we solve for that, we should be able to make the ultimate torta de leche, which, paradoxically, is made with only one supreme leche.

        Definitely dinstinct leches. Also plant milks: almond, oat, coconut. Coconut cream should also count IMO. Then there is condensed coconut milk as well.

          I’d be suspicious of a tres leches cake made with coconut cream. Somehow, I don’t think it would taste right.
