Bairro da Liberdade is the place with the most different foods per square meter in São Paulo, or maybe even in Brazil! And there are options for all tastes: from giant senbei cookies stuffed with octopus to Tortela’s delicious pie on a stick, which we’re going to introduce you to today.
This unique dessert can be found at Galeria Pingo Doce, located at Rua dos Aflitos, 31 – Liberdade. The place is already known for offering the cutest and funniest food in town and now it’s welcoming another bakery that serves food we already know, but on a stick!
How to make your tortela?
To create your pie on a stick, you first need to choose the flavor. The bakery offers options such as matcha, Leite Ninho and Nutella, the classic lemon, strawberry and many more. The second step is to select a matching topping, which can be white chocolate, ovomaltine or any of the other options. Finally, just choose a confectionery that will make your dessert even more special. There are many combinations to create!
The tortelas cost R$22 and come frozen, so the experience is similar to eating a popsicle, but much more sophisticated and fun. What’s more, as you define your order from start to finish, the experience is super personalized.
What else can you find at Galeria Pingo Doce?
As well as the tortelas, this gallery has other stores offering super different foods. There, you’ll find the ‘Dragon’s Breath’, a nitrogen dessert that produces smoke when eaten; the ‘Tayaki’, a panda-shaped pastry; the giant senbei and much more. Just take a walk around the space to check out all the delicacies on offer.
So, if you were looking for a mouth-watering dessert after eating a delicious yakisoba in Liberdade, why not check out this option? The tart on a stick is a tasty, different and refreshing alternative for those who enjoy a sweet treat after lunch.
