About Natilla

Natilla is a creamy dessert originating from Spanish and Latin American cuisine, popular for its simple yet rich flavors. Made primarily of milk, sugar, egg yolks, and cornstarch, it is gently cooked to achieve a smooth, custard-like consistency and often flavored with vanilla, cinnamon, or lemon zest. This indulgent treat is typically served chilled, offering a comforting sweetness that complements traditional holiday meals or festive gatherings. While Natilla is a good source of calcium from the milk, its high sugar content and use of egg yolks mean it can be calorie-dense and high in cholesterol. Moderation is key when enjoying this dessert as part of a balanced diet. Variations of Natilla may include reduced sugar or dairy-free alternatives for a lighter, healthier option, making it adaptable to different dietary needs and preferences.
