A Disappointing Taste of Tradition

I was really looking forward to trying Alfajorium's traditional alfajores, given their rich history and cultural significance. Unfortunately, my experience was a letdown. The packaging was beautiful, and I appreciated the story behind the company and its founder, Ailin Lebek. However, when it came to the actual product, I found the dulce de leche filling to be overly sweet and the cookies themselves to be somewhat stale. For a company that prides itself on using 100% artisanal methods and the finest ingredients, I expected a more nuanced flavor profile and a fresher texture. Perhaps I just got a bad batch, but at the prices they're charging, I expected more. The innovative combinations they offer sound intriguing, but based on my initial try, I'm hesitant to explore further. It's clear that Ailin and her team are passionate about their craft, and I applaud their commitment to tradition and quality. However, for me, the taste just didn't live up to the hype. If you're a die-hard alfajor fan or looking for a unique gift, you might still want to give Alfajorium a try. Just be aware that the quality might not be consistent across all their products.
