"text": "World Dulce de Leche Day celebrates the creamy, caramel-colored confection made by slowly heating milk and sugar. The thick spread can be enjoyed on its own or used as a filling, topping, or dip for sweet foods; in Argentina, it is especially associated with alfajores, pancakes, cakes, and ice cream. Britannica describes dulce de leche as a popular Latin American confection and a source of pride in Argentina and Uruguay.\nThe sweet’s exact origins are unknown. A popular Argentine legend places its accidental discovery in 1829, when a cook left sweetened milk on the stove during a meeting between Juan Manuel de Rosas and Juan Lavalle. Similar milk-based confections and competing origin stories exist elsewhere, so the tale remains a legend rather than a confirmed account.\nOctober 11 has been observed as International Dulce de Leche Day since at least 1995, according to one account. Another account dates the holiday’s establishment to 1998, crediting the Argentine Center for the Promotion of Dulce de Leche with creating it to honor the confection and its place in Argentine gastronomy.",
