Varieties of Brazilian cakes

About this dish

Manuê or manauê refers to several Brazilian cake varieties that have traditionally been made with corn and sugar cane molasses. The corn that is used can either be grinded fresh sweet corn, fubá de moinho (corn fubá), or grinded rehydrated dried corn kernels. Aside from these two primary ingredients, coconut milk, shredded coconut, butter and other cooking fats, cassava, sugar, and wheat flour are sometimes added for special occasions. Manuê is eaten during breakfast and in the afternoon either by itself or accompanied by a cup of coffee. It can also be found at regional fairs, festivals, and Festa Juninas.
