    I used halved the cake and cream recipe because I didn't need that much cake. The cake was delcious and moist. I used a round baking dish and topped it with strawberies. I did make the icing part but will discard it next time since the cake was already sweet. The icing isn't needed. Just top it with some whipped cream and more strawberries!

    Emeril, we can always count on you for great food, but this....well this was just amazing! As a native of the Miami area, I was longing for a bit of home during a snowstorm. Ah, a yummy dessert. Family and friends were asking for this recipe by the end of the evening. Muchas gracias!!!

    Came out great. Loved the recipe. Only thing i'll do different in the future is double the "Cream topping" ingredients. The cake was delicious but a bit dry.

    Don't know why this is rated "Expert", I thought it was pretty easy to make. Definitely a great do-ahead dessert. My icing turned out to liquidy so I didn't use it and it really didn't need any more sweet added to it. It was moist and yummy. Mangos are just out of season so I was going to use strawberries (don't care for papaya but I forgot. Eggs should ALWAYS be at room temp for baking -- well, for all recipes actually. Highly recommend this recipe!

    I have been to Costa Rica many times and one of the best desserts there Tres Leches. I decided on a whim to give this a try for a special cake for my mother in-law's birthday. She is a gourmet home cook and I hoped she would enjoy a cake she had never had. Well I have to tell you it got rave reviews from all.

    This cake was extremely moist and sweet. Too rich for me, but a great cake for those who love Tres Leches cake. It was a hit at a Latin American themed dinner party.
