Cake-of-roll

Cake-of-roll is a sweet Brazilian, typical Pernambuco. The pasta is made with wheat flour, eggs, butter and sugar.
The mass is rolled with a layer of melted guava, giving the appearance of a rocambole. However, the layers of pasta and guava are much thinner and taste completely different.
Its origin is in the adaptation of Portuguese cake "mattress of bride", a kind of sponge cake rolled with a filling of walnuts. To arrive here, the Portuguese began to replace the filling by guava, fruit plentiful in northeastern Brazil, when measured with much of the sugar mills in the region. Until today it is common povilhar is the cake-of-roll with sugar in their outer layer, off the dessert presentation.
Bolo-derolo is one of the most tasty sweet and savory Brazilian.
