Authentic Brazilian Cheese Roll a Brazilian Favorite for Nearly Three Decades

Forno de Minas, a Brazilian-based company with a wholly owned subsidiary in the United States, will be showcasing its delectable, mouth-watering Pão de Queijo (“cheese roll” in English) during the 2019 Dallas Nourished Festival Set for September 7-8 in the Dallas Market Hall, the show is the largest gluten-free and allergen-friendly consumer event in the United States.

Forno’s participation at the Nourished Festival marks the company as a pioneer in the movement, proving how rich and full a gluten-free diet can be. Avoiding gluten has become a significant health component for consumers who seek to avoid symptoms associated with gluten intolerance, gluten allergy or general inflammation, as well as those simply seeking a healthier lifestyle. And for this growing segment of the population, Forno’s Brazilian cheese roll is not only gluten-free, but also all natural and yeast-free.

The homemade cheese roll features a signature fluffy texture made from locally sourced eggs, milk, Brazilian “minas” cheese and cassava (tapioca or “manioc”). What started as an easy-prep delight for family and friends quickly became the go-to snack food for millions of Brazilians. Fully baked and only a five-minute prep in your oven, Forno’s Brazilian cheese roll allows those who are gluten intolerant to integrate deliciously with those who have less restrictions on their diets. It is the kind of product that goes well with coffee for breakfast, as a standalone snack, and as the perfect accompaniment to any meal.

“Our Brazilian cheese roll is much more than a gluten free product, it’s a natural recipe that has been passed down from generation to generation”, said Isabela Mazurek, Forno de Minas USA Marketing Analyst. “In Brazilian homes, Pão de Queijo is one of the most versatile products, it can be served as a snack, breakfast, lunch or dinner,” added Mazurek, “So it is a very special treat for us to provide it to U.S. homes, especially as it appeals to gluten-conscious individuals.”

Forno de Minas invites attendees of the Nourished Festival to visit Booth #303 to sample its delicious Pão de Queijo. To learn more about the company’s nearly three decades of history and locate Pão de Queijo in your neighborhood, please visit FornoDeMinas.com.
