Peach cake is a traditional dessert that has gained popularity in various regions of Latin America, especially during the fresh peach season. This delicious treat combines the softness of the fruit with a spongy and aromatic base. In Mexico and parts of Central America, it may be known simply as "pastel de durazno," while in countries like Argentina and Chile, the peach is called "melocotón" or "durazno," although the recipe maintains similar characteristics. Its origin dates back to the European influence of traditional pastry making, adapted with local ingredients and home techniques that gradually became part of the family culinary culture. Today, this cake is enjoyed at both family gatherings and special celebrations.
