Brazilian pastry scene showcases artisanal Easter treats and Bake Off Brasil

Ateliê Mãe & Filha, run by Cristina Nasser and Marcella Petrarca in Brasília, introduced a new line of artisanal Easter desserts for 2026. Offerings include chocolate‑coated spheres filled with cake and brigadeiro, the Crocfran with red‑fruit chocolate shell, a lemon‑scented brûlée, the premium Ovo Caviar covered in black micro‑spheres, and a kids‑egg range. Prices start at R$188 and orders are taken via WhatsApp.

On the same weekend, the TV competition Bake Off Brasil aired a new episode hosted by Nadja Haddad, with judges Beca Milano and chef Giuseppe Gerundino. Contestants first tackled the creative “Fonte dos Desejos” challenge, designing cakes that represent personal wishes, then moved to the technical “Curvas de Caramelo” round, where precise caramel‑curve desserts were required. The show highlighted the blend of artistic vision and technical skill in Brazilian confectionery.
