These meringues are best enjoyed straight from the package. They are a delightful accompaniment to hot beverages like coffee, espresso, or tea, offering a sweet contrast to the drink's warmth. For a more elaborate presentation, they can be artfully arranged on a dessert tray alongside other small sweets or fresh berries. Their light texture also makes them a charming topping for ice cream or yogurt, adding a sweet crunch and a hint of caramel flavor to a simple bowl.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike denser cookies, these meringues are exceptionally light and airy due to their whipped egg white base. The dulce de leche infusion provides a distinct caramel sweetness that sets them apart from plain meringues, offering a richer flavor profile.

How to keep the rest
To maintain their crispness, store any remaining cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. Avoid exposing them to moisture, as this can cause them to become soft and lose their signature texture. Keep them away from direct sunlight and heat.
