About Pastel de elote
Pastel de Elote, or Mexican sweet corn cake, is a traditional dessert originating from Mexican cuisine. Made with fresh corn kernels, eggs, sugar, butter, and flour or masa harina, this moist and creamy cake highlights the natural sweetness of corn. Some variations might include milk or condensed milk for added richness. While its savory-sweet flavor profile makes it a beloved treat, it's important to note that Pastel de Elote is often high in sugar and fat due to the use of butter and sweeteners. On the healthier side, the fresh corn provides dietary fiber, antioxidants, and essential vitamins like B-complex vitamins. However, moderation is key when enjoying this dessert. It’s a delightful way to experience a traditional Mexican dish, appealing to both sweet and savory palates.
