Spanish translation:eres el queso de mis macarrones(just like that)

Explanation:
It´s a flirt and that´s the right way to say it,nevertheless all the provided translations are right,just another examples(flirts) meaning the same.
e.g:Eres el gato en mi tejado(the cat in my roof)
Very common in Latinamerica mainly in Central-America where flirting is a typical way to entourage or to court!.Hope it helps!

1 hr confidence:

you are the cheese to my macaroni si fueras concón, sería el caldero

Language variant: Rep. Dominicana

Explanation:
Tu frase me recuerda una expresión dominicana que también es sacada del ámbito culinario. Se suele preparar el arroz de tal manera que se pegue en el fondo una capa, llamada "concón", que le encanta a mucha gente y el caldero es la olla en que se prepara.

Dudo que te sirva, pero lo pongo para "cultura general".

you are the cheese to my macaroni "eres la niña de mis ojos"

Explanation:
this may work if the food motif is not a must for the particular translation you're doing (this is like saying "You're the apple of my eye")
