El dulce de leche no necesita traducción, puedes encontrarlo en numerosos enlaces por google. También en el buscador de Proz aparece como dulce de leche:
http://www.proz.com/?sp=ksearch
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dulce_de_leche
Por otra parte, la yerba mate tampoco se traduce.
Estás traduciendo una película argentina? Ayudaría tener un poco más de contexto en tu pregunta.

Mónica Hanlan
: Perfecto, aunque en libros en inglés, le ponen un acento a "maté" para diferenciarlo de "mate=amigo". Aunque el acento esté mal, es lo que hacen acá. Suerte.

muchas gracias, no sabía que era por eso, las veces que lo traduje dejé yerba mate aclarando que era una especie de té.

"maté" or "mate" already exists in English to refer to the South American drink. Alternatively, once could say "maté tea".
"dulce de leche" is unique to South America :-) So either leave it untranslated, or try to explain it, as I did.

: actually dulce de leche is also known as toffee.
Yet they are done in the same way. As the matter of fact, Dulce de leche is also known as arequipe in Colombia and other countries from South America.

I have to disagree. Dulce de leche is most definitely not the same thing as toffee!! Toffee is hard and sticks to your teeth. Dulce de leche is less viscous and can be eaten with cheese, dissolved in warm milk or spread on almost anything. Yummy!

Round of Mate* and Dulce de Leche**
* Mate (prounced MAH-tay) - a traditional South American tea made from Mate leaves
** Dulce de Leche - a thick sweet caramalised milk spread
Leave the original terms, as has already been suggested, but I think it requires a full explanation, anotated at the foot of the page, as I have indicated.
