About Portuguese mini cake

Portuguese Mini Cakes, inspired by the traditional "Bolo de Arroz," are a beloved treat from Portuguese cuisine. These small, fluffy cakes are typically made with a mixture of rice flour, sugar, eggs, butter, and milk, giving them their signature light texture and delicate sweetness. Often enjoyed as a breakfast item or afternoon snack, they pair perfectly with coffee or tea. While they are naturally gluten-free due to the use of rice flour, their sugar and butter content can make them a more indulgent choice. However, they provide a quick source of energy and a satisfying treat when enjoyed in moderation. Variations may include hints of lemon or vanilla for added flavor. While not the healthiest option, Portuguese Mini Cakes are a delightful way to savor a classic element of Portuguese baking traditions.
