The History of the Alfajor

8th–15th Century

An Arabic Name

The word "alfajor" comes from the Arabic al-hasw, meaning "the filling." Moorish rule brought sweets stuffed with honey, nuts, and spices to the Iberian Peninsula.

16th–18th Century

Crossing the Atlantic

Spanish colonization carried the tradition of the filled sweet to South America, where each region adapted it with its own ingredients — corn, carob, and later, cane sugar.

Late 19th Century

Argentina Makes It Its Own

Spanish immigrants opened the first alfajor workshops in Argentina. Gradually, the dense original dough gave way to a lighter cookie.

1920s

Dulce de Leche Arrives

Dulce de leche became the defining filling of the Argentine alfajor. Dipped in chocolate or dusted with coconut, it grew into a national symbol.

Today

Dulce Aida in Colorado

With family roots in Argentina and fruit grown on Colorado's Western Slope, every Dulce Aida alfajor honors that heritage — with blueberry and almond confiture, and a final touch of edible gold dust.
