In Argentina, dulce de leche is more than a sweet spread — it’s a part of life. This smooth, golden caramelized milk has a deep emotional connection to childhood, family gatherings, and everyday rituals. At Wooden Table Baking Co., this tradition lives on in every handcrafted alfajor, jar of spread, and gift box.
A Taste That Feels Like Home
For generations of Argentinians, dulce de leche has represented comfort. It’s the flavor of homemade desserts shared at the table, of school lunches, of special occasions. From birthday cakes to everyday breakfasts, its presence is constant — and always meaningful.
Wooden Table Baking Co. captures that essence with recipes baked in California using natural ingredients, honoring Argentine tradition while bringing that sense of home to the U.S.
From Tradition to Everyday Delight
The love for dulce de leche runs deep because it’s woven into so many aspects of Argentine life:
- In pastries: especially in alfajores, where it's the creamy filling between two soft cookies.
- In cakes and desserts: layered into sponge cakes or spread over tarts and brownies.
- At breakfast: spooned onto toast, stirred into coffee, or paired with pancakes.
- In celebrations: a must-have for birthdays, holidays, and family gatherings.
This is why dulce de leche isn't just popular — it’s loved. It’s a connection to roots, stories, and emotions passed from one generation to the next.
Crafted with Purpose in California
At Wooden Table Baking Co., dulce de leche is made in small batches, using simple ingredients: milk, sugar, time, and care. The result is a spread that reflects Argentine flavor and California quality — rich, smooth, and endlessly versatile.

Not All Sweet Spreads Are the Same
To understand why dulce de leche is so beloved, it helps to see how it differs from similar sweets. Though often confused with caramel, it has a distinct flavor and texture that set it apart — and make it unforgettable.
