Brazil’s beloved Cheese Puffs, “Pão de Queijo,” hold the same iconic status in Brazil as the croissant does in France.
The perfect Cheese Puff has a crispy, golden exterior with a soft, chewy, and airy interior that’s slightly stretchy thanks to the tapioca flour.
The texture is uniquely satisfying—light yet doughy, with a gentle fluffiness and a delightfully cheesy bite that almost melts in your mouth. It’s both crisp and tender, making it an irresistible combination of crunch and chew.
