With three thin layers of butter cake, a roll is made around three layers of filling.

The traditional filling is guava, but other flavors are available.

Other items include the empadas - pastry tarts filled with beef, typically eaten for breakfast in Brazil - and tapioca-based cheese breads. The specialty cake rolls can also be shipped nationwide.
