Boston’s Best Restaurants for Brazilian Food | Eater Boston
"The brigadeiro (named for Brigadier Eduardo Gomes, whose 1946 presidential campaign sold the confections to raise money) is made by combining sweetened condensed milk, cocoa, and butter to create a sweet, chocolatey paste. Then, it is rolled into balls the size of truffles and coated with chocolate sprinkles. Padaria Brasil in Framingham is best known for its brigadeiro, thanks to a recipe that hasn’t changed in many years. The debate that many have when eating this fudgy delicacy is whether it should be eaten in one bite or two. Head to Padaria Brasil and decide for yourself. And if chocolate isn’t your thing, give Padaria Brasil’s beijinho, or “little kiss,” a try — it’s like the coconut version of a brigadeiro. Padaria Brasil in Framingham is open for takeout and delivery." - Tommy Ranucci
