Buffet Baddies: Dishes You Shouldn’t Touch with a Ten-Foot Fork!

Avoiding The Tres Leches Temptation

Tres leches cake, a delight hailing from Latin America, is a sponge cake soaked in three kinds of milk: evaporated, condensed, and heavy cream. While it’s a delectable treat that dances on the tongue, its buffet presence is risky. The cake’s dairy-drenched essence makes it a magnet for bacteria if left out too long, particularly in the danger zone of room temperature.

Moreover, its moist nature can turn from lusciously creamy to disappointingly soggy as it awaits buffet-goers. This dessert’s delicate balance between heavenly moist and overly mushy makes it a risky buffet pick, where the line between delicious and disastrous is as thin as a cake slice.
