Parents

My parents immigrated to the United States from Peru. And Iove to eat desserts!

Alfajores

What are Alfajores?

Alfajores are sandwich cookies filled with Manjar Blanco (dulce de leche), a creamy caramel confection made from milk and sugar.

Vivi’s Alfajores rolls the the cookies in powdered sugar like traditional Peruvian style Alfajores. As heavenly as this sounds the combination of the extremely soft and tender cookie and dulce de leche make it top notch.

Siblings

I’m the oldest of my three siblings. My brother is one year younger so he is 16. My little sister is 4 years old and my baby brother is 1 years old. We are four in total. Since I’m the oldest I’m like the “second mom” to my two younger siblings and something I have learned is that kids are a lot of work.
