I think that's a different stuff. Our dulce de leche is a smooth sticky mass, usually (slightly reddish dark) brown, that you spread over bread and/or butter, or use to glue the halves of cakes together (sometimes mixed with cream), or inside _cubanitos_ (icecream-like cones filled with dulce) or in _alfajores_ (two small round pieces of pastry joined by dulce or cream, and generally covered in chocolate). Or you can just take the pot from the fridge and eat it up with a spoon in your spare time. :) --Pablo Flores http://draseleq.conlang.org/
