About DULCE DE LECHE CAKE 10 INCH, DULCE DE LECHE
Meijer Dulce de Leche Cake (10 inch) is a full-size layer cake from Meijer's bakery line, featuring a caramel-milk filling and a complex multi-component ingredient structure. The whipped topping contains hydrogenated palm kernel oil — a fully hydrogenated fat that produces stearic acid rather than trans fat, distinct from the partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs) that are banned in the US. However, the caramel component contains HFCS and hydrogenated soybean and cottonseed oils, which may represent partially hydrogenated fats if not otherwise specified; consumers should verify the specific hydrogenation status on the current production label.
The caramel color used in the caramel component contains sulfites, which must be declared on the ingredient label when present at 10 ppm or greater under FDA regulations. Sulfites are a recognized allergen equivalent, and individuals with sulfite sensitivity or sulfite-induced asthma should exercise caution. The glace cherry garnish contains Red 40 (Allura Red AC) and sulfur dioxide — sulfur dioxide is an inorganic sulfite used as a preservative in maraschino-style cherries, contributing to the sulfite burden of this product.
Per 100 grams, the cake provides approximately 319 kilocalories, reflecting the moderate caloric density of a layered cake with cream topping and caramel filling. Allergens include wheat (cake layers), dairy (whipped topping, dulce de leche filling), eggs (cake batter), and sulfites. Soy may be present in the shortening or caramel component. The 10-inch format is a full celebration or occasion cake appropriate for 12 to 16 servings. The dulce de leche flavor profile has gained significant traction in the US market, driven by growing consumer familiarity with Latin American dessert traditions.
