If heaven could be packaged in a red plastic cup, that is exactly what it would look like. The dulce crema de leche from Conaprole that you can get in Uruguay and Argentina is undoubtedly the best dulce de leche you will ever have in your life. I just don't recommend using it as a substitute for protein shakes after the gym as I have been doing for the past three weeks while on vacation.
