Brigadeiro is an elegantly simple, handmade Brazilian treat. Perfect with coffee and great as gifts, these bite-sized morsels are silky, rich, and undeniably unique.
For chef and owner, Maya Zellman, it is also an integral part of a personal story and a celebration of family and culture. Her whole life, Maya has taken annual trips to Brazil. She knows that visiting her Brazilian family means savoring the unmistakable melt-in-your-mouth flavor of Brigadeiro. Every year, she can hardly wait to take that first creamy bite and can practically taste it from the plane!
Maya has been making her own Brigadeiro as long as she can remember. It evokes the sweet memories of Brazilian birthday parties, weddings, family dinners, and cafezinho (afternoon coffee breaks). This decadent dessert satisfies like nothing she’s ever tasted in the U.S. “My Brigadeiro” is Maya’s way of sharing her cherished Brazilian culture and its quintessential treat with the city she adores, Los Angeles.
Every Brigadeiro is made to order with only the best quality ingredients, by hand, every step of the way…with lots of Amor!
ENJOY!
