Cheesebuddy brings new twists to a 400-year-old history
Our story starts in 1700s Brazil, where pão de queijo originated. The irresistible snack quickly became a staple at special events and in family homes. Fast forward four centuries, and Brazilian cheese bread has landed in Australia with Cheesebuddy.
Let our traditional methods transport your tastebuds.
Pão de queijo, translated literally as “cheese bread”, has been part of Brazilian life and culture for over 400 years. Traditional methods call for cassava flour (aka tapioca), grated cheese, oil, milk and eggs – and not much else.
We use these same simple ingredients to make Cheesebuddy gluten-free cheese bread. Our pão de queijo is fluffy and flavourful, with a satisfyingly cheesy crunch. Following the family recipes we brought from Brazil, we’re cooking up a range of versatile, wholesome and delicious products. You can use them to replace bland carbs in all kinds of tasty dishes, or pop them in the oven for a quick and satisfying snack.
