Bolo de Aipim, also known as cassava cake, is a beloved Brazilian dessert rooted in the country's rich culinary traditions. Made primarily from grated cassava (a starchy root vegetable), along with eggs, sugar, butter, and coconut milk, this dense, moist cake boasts a naturally gluten-free profile. Its creamy texture and tropical flavor make it a staple at family gatherings and celebrations. Cassava is a rich source of carbohydrates, providing energy, but the cake's added sugar and butter contribute to its indulgent nature. While it offers some essential nutrients like fiber and vitamin C from cassava, Bolo de Aipim is best enjoyed in moderation due to its high calorie and fat content. Perfect as a treat with coffee or tea, this dessert reflects the comforting simplicity of Brazilian home cooking.
