cassava cupcake

Discover a delicious taste surprise with our irresistible butternut squash cupcakes. These little dumplings are a perfect combination of soft texture, mild flavor and a special touch of sweetness, which will delight your palate.

We started with mandioquinha, also known as baroa potato or yellow carrot, a versatile tuber full of flavor. The mandioquinha is boiled and transformed into a creamy puree, which adds moisture and softness to our cupcakes.

Next, we combine the cassava puree with classic cupcake ingredients like wheat flour, sugar, eggs and butter. This combination of ingredients results in a light and fluffy dough that melts in your mouth with every bite.

But the magic is in the details! We add a dash of spices, such as cinnamon and nutmeg, to enhance the mandioquinha flavor and bring a note of comforting warmth to the cupcakes. The aroma that spreads as they bake is simply irresistible.

Finally, we prepare a smooth and delicate frosting that perfectly complements the flavor of the cupcake. We opted for a cream cheese topping, which adds a touch of acidity and creaminess to the whole, balancing the sweetness and enhancing the unique flavors of the cassava.
