About Romeu e julieta

Romeu e Julieta is a classic Brazilian dessert that beautifully combines creamy white cheese, typically Minas cheese, with sweet guava paste (goiabada). Inspired by the famous Shakespearean lovers, its contrasting flavors symbolize the perfect union of sweet and savory. Originating from Brazilian cuisine, this pairing represents a traditional and beloved treat often served as a snack or dessert. Nutritionally, the dish provides calcium and protein from the cheese, which supports bone health and muscle function. However, guava paste is high in sugar, making moderation important for those watching their sugar intake. Romeu e Julieta can be enjoyed in its pure form or incorporated into pastries and cakes. It’s an indulgent yet culturally rich option that highlights Brazilian culinary heritage while offering simple, satisfying flavors.
