Sodiê Doces brings June celebration flavours to Brazilian tables

June celebration flavours from Sodiê Doces

June is among the months Brazilians most look forward to for its food. From major popular festivals in the North-East to traditional parish fairs in the South-East, as well as celebrations across the Centre-West and other parts of the country, this period is defined by recipes that evoke fond memories and put ingredients such as sweetcorn, cornmeal, coconut and condensed milk at the heart of the table.

With this season in mind, Sodiê Doces has brought together menu options that blend tradition with innovation for the month’s customary festivities. Highlights include Pudding Cake (#191), a recent addition from the chain that combines two of Brazil’s best-loved desserts in one recipe and has been winning over customers both in shops and on social media.

Another choice is the home-style sweetcorn cake, one of the most traditional flavours at this time of year and part of the brand’s home-style cake range. The portfolio also features recipes associated with June celebrations, including Home-Style Peanut Sweet Cake, Plain Cornmeal Cake, Cornmeal Cake with Guava Paste and Cornmeal Cake with Fennel, alongside other home-style flavours that pair perfectly with freshly brewed coffee or hot chocolate on colder days.

Tradition and shared moments

Although June festivities are known by different names throughout Brazil - June festivals in many areas, and Saint John celebrations in several North-Eastern states and at long-established Centre-West events - they share the same essentials: generous tables, classic flavours and recipes passed down through generations.

For Fábio Araujo, managing director of Sodiê Doces, the season offers an opportunity to reconnect with traditions through food. “Our menu brings together flavours that awaken memories and create moments to share. June celebrations are defined precisely by this meeting of tradition, affection and good food,” he says.

With around 400 shops in Brazil and two locations in Orlando, United States, Sodiê Doces offers more than 80 cake flavours, as well as home-style cakes, premium chocolates, small sweets, savoury snacks and drinks. This broadens the choice for those wishing to celebrate June festivities with recipes inspired by Brazilian culture.
