Suspiro de limeña is a traditional dessert originating in Lima, consisting of two main components: manjar blanco caramel cream, and fluffy meringue. The manjar blanco component consists of milk, sugar, egg yolks, and vanilla, while the meringue is made with egg whites enriched with pisco or port wine and dusted with cinnamon.

The dessert is usually layered in individual bowls or glasses where manjar blanco goes on the bottom, and the meringue goes on top. It can be served either well-chilled or at room temperature. Suspiro was invented by the wife of a poet named Jose Galvez, while the poet himself gave it a name, which translates to Lima lady's sigh.
