There is nothing that transports you back to the past like a taste or smell that takes you back to the happiest moments of your life, and surely, your childhood is one of them.

One of the fundamental things in anyone's childhood is the desserts we almost always consumed at home, prepared by our mom or grandma, of which we tend to have very beautiful and delicious memories.

Just to jog your memory and return to your childhood, here we share 10 desserts from your childhood that will be a trip to the past:

-Flan. Its simplicity, which is not at odds with its flavor, is a reminder of when you were a child and there was nothing that excited you more than dessert time. Homemade flan is a reminder of those happy days.

-Chocolate cake. Surely you have a deep-rooted memory of some chocolate cake from a relative that was enjoyed on very special occasions. A bite of that cake is a trip to the past, for sure.

-Ice cream. Homemade, from a cart, or store-bought, few things excited us more than eating ice cream with its endless flavors.



-Churros. The most typical dessert of Mexicans that, although we discovered it in childhood, we still enjoy at all ages, because who can resist its crunchy texture, with sprinkled sugar? Stuffed, with chocolate, or alone, churros have always been a great idea.

-Pound cake. A sure hit, your grandma surely had the recipe to make it very fluffy and with a very familiar flavor that surely brings back spectacular memories when you eat it now.

-Cheese cup. No matter how much the recipe varied, almost always the result was the same, that mix of flavors, with the texture of bread and the creaminess of cheese, was an unparalleled sweet experience.

-Homemade cookies. Nothing more traditional than the butter cookies we made with mom. Sometimes we decorated them, or sometimes we enjoyed them fresh out of the oven, with a big glass of milk.

-Chocolate mousse. Its texture intrigued us, but we also loved it for its lightness packed with flavor that made us enjoy every bite after finishing our meal.

-Fritters. A very typical dessert on the streets of our country, very crunchy, sugary, and with honey, it was how we enjoyed them as children.



-Rice pudding. A very common dessert in Mexican homes, surely your family's recipe has been passed down from generation to generation, and its flavor reminds you of your mother or grandmother, who made the best, creamiest, and sweetest rice pudding.

Now that you remember, you can learn to prepare these desserts at home and teach them to the new generations so they can build their own memories and have their childhood filled with sweet flavors.
