If you ever have the good fortune to attend a party in Brazil, your chances of spotting #Brigadeiros on the sweets table are deliciously high. (Lucky you!) These soft, fudgy, chocolate-sprinkled bonbons are a beloved part of Brazilian culture—and once you sink your teeth in, it’s easy to understand why. 😍 • Brigadeiros (prounounced “bree-gah-DAY-ros” in Brazilian Portuguese) trace back to the 1940s. They’re widely linked to the 1945 presidential campaign of Brigadiero Eduardo Gomes, whose supporters made and sold the treats to raise funds. Gomes didn’t win the election, but his namesake sweet became a lasting favorite—maintaining a ubiquitous presence at parties, social gatherings, and joyful occasions for 80 years and counting! • The popularity of this treasured treat continues to proliferate throughout Brazil and beyond—including the freezers at your neighborhood #TraderJoes, where they're available for your enjoyment all year long! Our version is made in classic style, with sweetened condensed milk, cocoa, cream, and cultured butter, then rolled in chocolate sprinkles for a satisfyingly textural finish. Happy Valentine’s Day! 💕 — • 9 per Box • Thaw & Serve • #TJsFreezerFinds •
