About Golfeado

Golfeado is a traditional Venezuelan pastry that offers a sweet and savory treat. Typically shaped like a spiral roll, it is made from enriched dough flavored with anise seeds, layered with brown sugar or "papelón" (a type of unrefined cane sugar), and often topped with a sprinkling of grated cheese before baking. The result is a soft, gooey pastry with caramelized sweetness and a hint of saltiness. Golfeados are often enjoyed as a snack or dessert, accompanied by coffee or fresh juice. While its combination of sugar and cheese makes it indulgent, Golfeado is high in refined carbohydrates and sugars, which can contribute to a quick energy boost but may lack sustained nutrients like fiber or protein. On the other hand, anise seeds provide some level of antioxidants and digestive benefits. Moderation is key to enjoying this delightful staple of Venezuelan cuisine.
