Chiclayo / Lambayeque
Llampayec has made Lambayecan sweets since 1992, cooking its manjarblanco in peroles rather than industrial kettles. The range centres on King Kong, the layered biscuit of the region. Alfajores and chocotejas sit on the same counter. The company lists shops in Lambayeque, Chiclayo and Lima, including counters at Avenida San Jose 611 and Avenida Ramon Castilla 443. Orders also ship from the website to addresses across Peru.
Best for King Kong and regional dulces
Llampayec has sold the sweets of Lambayeque since 1992, and the house states its method in a single line on its own homepage. Manjarblanco is cooked in peroles, the wide shallow pans northern confectioners use for slow reduction. That manjar goes into King Kong, the layered biscuit named for the region, and into alfajores boxed for travel. Chocotejas, natillas and trufas fill out a counter of dulces tipicos. The company registers itself as a maker and seller of typical regional sweets, with shops in Lambayeque, Chiclayo and Lima. Its own store list runs to seven Lima addresses, from Barrio Chino on Jr. Ucayali to Miraflores and Lince. In the north the addresses are Av. Ramon Castilla 443 in Lambayeque and Av. San José 611 in Chiclayo, plus a stand at Mall Aventura CIX. The range stays regional rather than national, which is what a King Kong maker is expected to do. Delivery runs from the website, and the counters handle walk-in orders for the same boxes.
Tarapoto / Peru
Orquidea Chocolate makes chocolate from cacao grown in Peru's San Martin region, selling bars and confections through its online shop while also supplying supermarkets. The company's office and storefront sit at Jr. Sta. Monica 200 in Tarapoto, confirmed by the Google Maps listing on its contact page.

Lambayeque (Chiclayo metro area)
San Roque began in 1920 when Lambayecan women baked traditional sweets for charity, and by 1933 it had registered the King Kong, a layered alfajor of shortbread, manjar blanco, and fruit jams named for the film gorilla. From its Lambayeque factory near Chiclayo it now makes more than thirty confections, including pineapple and chirimoya versions of the giant alfajor.
