It is my goal to fully trial and embrace the foods of Chile (and Argentina).  Here is my run down of the desserts, to this point in time…there is still time for plenty more. It says top ten because that sounds better than top 13 but I just couldn’t leave any of them out. #13-1 with 1 being the best.

13.  Cinnamon Roll -  Straight from the local bakery (which panaderias are everywhere as bread is the primary meal). This is delicious but wait to hear the rest.

3stars

Best place to find this dessert:  The place across from Huguitos

12. Kuchen – a classic to the area from the town’s (Frutillar) german influence.  Good but should be better for the number of places its sold.

3 stars

Best place to find this dessert:  Kuchenladen because its fun to say…sounds like land of kuchen.

11. Strudel- sold at Volcan Osorno.  Great treat to put in your pocket while skiing. Like a desert empanada.  Well maybe not really. Overall great but not fine dining worthy.

3 stars

Best place to find this dessert:  Volcan Osorno for the effects

10. Creme brulet de naranja - Now this tasted like eating a cloud with a hint of orange and a little crispy hail on top.

3 1/2 stars

Best place to find this dessert: Hortensia

9.  Helado- (ice cream) -two flavors mint and dulce de leche.  Mint is amazing.  Ice cream tastes straight from the cow.  Dulce de leche sweet by itself but even better in ice cream.

8.  Torta – its cake but better.  Chocolate cake.

6.  Oreo waffle – breakfast for dessert but with cookies.  Eaten at a restaurant we can’t stop going back to.

4 1/2 stars

Best place to find this desert:  Merken

5. Parfait de mantequilla de mani - (Peanut butter parfait) - I have to admit I did not know what I was ordering and sounded fluffy, well it wasn’t. But still the texture and taste were exquisite and like nothing I have ever tasted in a dessert. Check out the photo below with Noah, me and the yumminess.

4.  Chocolate Mouse – this is not just one element. It is surrounded by almonds and a tube of chocolate.  Chocolate…again made with milk from those cows right out back.

4 1/2 stars

Best place to find this dessert:  Tropera – secret knowledge- we have an in with the owner…Go Buffs!

3.  The cathedral – delicious brownie with a tower of chocolate with ice cream stuffed in it and caramel drizzled over the top. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it.

2.  Dulce de Leche lava cake – think of dulce de leche pouring out of a cake!

5 stars

Best place to find this dessert:  Pantera (panther…it was like a marvel restaurant)
