After the name was chosen, Doce
Brigadeiro, we decided to work on the Brigadeiro flavors we would like to
offer. Even though it is a Brazilian candy our target market are the North
Americans. We have to make sure we will fulfill their needs and won’t be doing
anything too different from what they love, but still include some of the traditional Brazilian favorites
as well.
Me and Marina spent a few
weeks talking about it, between meetings and in cooking/baking sessions we came
up with all these flavors to start up our menu. In the long-run we will
probably be taking some out and adding others in depending on sales. It
will be all about the customer preference!
Here are the flavors we came
up with:
From the top left to the
bottom right: The Traditional Brazilian with chocolate sprinkles, peanuts,
peppermint, pistachio, almonds, dark chocolate, strawberry flavor with
sprinkles, strawberry flavor with sugar, roast coconut, coconut, mix coconut,
dried cranberry with Cajun, white
chocolate with rainbow sprinkles, s'mores, and chocolate mint.
After deciding the flavors we then decided to name them -
but not a random name. It had to be a name that would have a meaning behind it. Therefore we decided to
give them names that were related to the most beautiful beaches in Brazil! However, they are hard names to pronounce - but
they have a meaning and we hope our customers like it, if not, we will change
it! Do you have an opinion about that? Check it out the name on our facebook
page. Guess which flavor is my favorite?!
