About Xuxo
Xuxo is a sweet pastry originating from Catalonia, Spain. It consists of a crispy, golden-brown fried dough filled typically with rich vanilla custard or chocolate cream, though some variations may use fruit preserves. The pastry is rolled in sugar right after frying, giving it a delightful crunch and enhanced sweetness. While Xuxo showcases the indulgent side of Spanish cuisine, it is a treat best enjoyed in moderation. Its high sugar and fat content make it a calorie-dense option, and the frying process contributes to saturated fats. On the healthier side, traditional recipes often rely on quality ingredients like fresh eggs and milk for the filling, which provide protein and calcium. Though not a health food, Xuxo’s indulgent nature makes it a beloved occasional dessert that reflects the rich culinary heritage of Spain.
