A tres leches cake, also known as pan tres leches, is a sponge cake—soaked in three kinds of milk: evaporated milk, condensed milk, and whole milk.
Tres leches is a very light cake, with many air bubbles. This distinct texture is why it does not have a soggy consistency, despite being soaked in a mixture of three types of milk.
