Chimbote Dulce de Leche

Chimbote is a brand specialized in Dulce de Leche, originated in France. It was founded in 1950 by the Galton family in Paris, who aimed to recreate a traditional recipe they had discovered. Even though Dulce de Leche is traditionally associated with Latin American countries like Argentina or Uruguay, Chimbote has established itself as a premium European producer using high-quality French milk.

The product is manufactured in France, specifically utilizing fresh milk from the Normandy region, which is renowned for its dairy quality. The company remains independent and is currently managed by the descendants of the founders under the company name 'Chimbote'. The brand has grown from a local Parisian secret to an international specialty found in high-end delicatessens and supermarkets across Europe.
