Funzionalità Premium
Bolo de Rolo's origins can be traced back to the Portuguese 'colchão de noiva' (bride's mattress), a rolled sponge cake filled with nuts. When the Portuguese arrived in Pernambuco, Brazil, wheat flour was scarce, and guava paste became a common filling, transforming the 'colchão de noiva' into what we know today as Bolo de Rolo. Over time, variations in technique and fillings have emerged.

The thin layers of sponge cake possess a delicate, slightly buttery flavor. Guava paste, the traditional filling, provides a deep, fruity sweetness.

Funzionalità Premium
Thin Layers are Key
The cake layers should be as thin as possible to create the signature rolled appearance and delicate texture. Using a hot pan and a thin batter is essential.
Filling Consistency
The filling should be firm enough to hold its shape when rolled, but not so hard that it cracks the cake. Adjust the consistency of the filling by adding water or cooking it longer, depending on the filling used. For doce de leite, ensure it is not too liquid when rolling.
Rolling Technique
Roll the cake tightly and evenly to prevent air pockets and ensure a uniform shape. Use parchment paper or a clean kitchen towel to assist with the rolling process.
Resting Period
Allow the Bolo de Rolo to rest in the refrigerator for at least an hour before slicing. This will help the filling set and make it easier to cut neat, clean slices.
