What you got?
Today's alfajor is the Cadbury Tres Sueños. I know Cadbury very well from the UK but they don't sell anything remotely like this. We've got three biscuits with two fillings (milk and dark chocolate mousse). The wrapping is going down the "glamourous" look with stars printed all over it. The purple colour is typical of classic Cadbury's products but overall it does look a bit dated.
Does the look of it match up with the wrapping?
Pretty much. It's well covered in chocolate and while it's not perfectly straight it looks pretty full on. Breaking it open it's clear the biscuit is firm and looks pretty much as promised.
The most important bit. The Taste?
Immediatly you feel the biscuit which has a good crunch to it. You can taste the difference between the milk and dark chocolate fillings. It does seem a bit dry but the taste is nice and rich without feeling heavy
Overall:
This is a strong, tasty example of how good alfajors can be. Don't be fooled by the dated wrapping as this should be one of the first choices you make.
A strong 8/10.
This and the oreo alfajores are my favorite ones! Older ones definitely can be a little dry but fresher ones are delicious.
