    3 Brigadeiros Box
    Chloe L.

    Tried these brigadeiro sweets for the first time! Extremely dense and sweet, prepare your palate for that. Very knowledgeable staff. We tried the dark chocolate, milk crunch, and pistachio. Texture is similar to taffy and tastes of condensed milk. Our favorite was dark chocolate, tasted like a rich truffle. A bit on the pricey side but a unique dessert option!

    Chocolate Chip Cookie

    Upon entering, I saw that the bakery was more of a drop by spot, and there was no line on a weekday evening. The bakery wasn't too small or tight, and it was cute. The Small Chocolate with Brigadeiro Layer Cake had the perfect about of sweetness. The chocolate flavor was more rich than sweet. I made the mistake of saving half for the second day, which completely changed the texture of the cake and made it a bit stale. I asked the staff member about the chocolate chip cookie, and he said it was soft. The Chocolate Chip Cookie was indeed soft. It wasn't crunchy, hard, or chewy, just soft. The cookie was good, but I tend to gravitate more towards chewy cookies.

    It's a cute spot for a quick pick up. Love the decor. This was my first brigadeiro experience! I loved it. I got the standard flavor. Will try the others next time!

    Walked by and saw "Brigadeiro Bakery" - sure way to brighten any day of the week! I decide to try the pistachio, classic chocolate and dark chocolate. While all are delicious, the classic chocolate was my favorite. Also great service! I'll be back :)

    My bf and I went to dinner nearby and I saw this Brazilian bakery nearby. Being Brazilian myself I was craving something from the motherland. We went in to get a few items, and were greeted by the sweetest guy working the counter. We asked a few questions about the flavors, to which he was extremely helpful. As we were checking out we saw that they had coffee items, and hot chocolate as well. And we proceeded to get 2 hot chocolates bc it was so cold outside. And guess what ? He told me that they were giving out free hot chocolate until Christmas as a customer appreciation gift!!! The desserts were great, and I'll come back for them, but the hot chocolate was the best I've had in the city!!!! Thank you Brigadeiro bakery, that was the perfect end to an awesome evening!

    I stopped here shortly before eating nearby after noticing a place that sells these wonderful Brazilian treats. If you treat them more as miniature truffles, the prices aren't really that high for the quality and for the area. The place was just closing and they were nice enough to open for a few minutes so I could pick up something. I decided to get a mix of three. Traditional with sprinkles: This was a basic delicious brigadeiro. Very sweet as expected with a good texture. Pistachio/pistache: Very good with the nuts helping reduce the sweetness. Dulce de leche with walnuts /doce de leit com nozes: The inside is a bit overkill as the filling of brigadeiros are condensed milk already (almost made the inside more of a caramel) but the walnuts were tasty. Probably my least favorite of the three but more unique than the rest. Good little treat store. They also sell acai bowls but there's other places I would prefer to get that as well as some other Brazilian treats (very good looking pão de queijo for instance.)

    Great desserts if you have a serious sweet tooth!! The cake was perfect though: cake itself is not sweet, slight bitter taste but when mixed with the brigadeiro, it's a perfect bite. Slightly pricey at $9.50/slice but worth esp since i shared with another person. The 4 leches was super sweet, probably eat it with coffee or tea. The strawberry with white chocolate was also good but not worth $7. They only offer the strawberry on weekends. The person serving us was nice and we didnt have to wait but as soon as we left, a crowd had formed. They don't have indoor seating except a small bench by the window and have 2 tables outside which can be cold in the winter. Otherwise, highly recommend if youre in the area. The small brigadiero bites are 3/$7, 12/$28 and if you want the 12 in a cute gift box it's $32.

    Tried a Brazilian cheese bread. Good texture with crispy light exterior and chewy interior. Seems to me like standard good quality cheese bread. Tangent: They claim to be better than a croissant but I think they're just two different pastries.

    Interesting dessert it's my first time having it. It's cute spot and nice/cute presentation. But in general it's quite sweet for my personal taste.

    There aren't many places in the City that specialize in Brazillian sweets so I'm so glad to have found one. They have some classic flavors like chocolate, coconut, milk, and dulce de leche, as well as some seasonal flavors. They are so cute and I love getting them as gifts for friends. I've tried pao de queijo - it was alright, on the denser side and not as cheesy and flavorful as others I've had.

    Video Review Here: https://youtu.be/FAQORGYrrLc This was my first experience with Brazilian baked goods, and it was quite pleasant! I was excited to ease on down to Brigadeiro Bakery to try some traditional brigadeiros and more! First off, I was able to get a free brigadeiro just for checking in through Yelp! Shout out to Yelp! This is a woman-run operation, which is all the more reason to go and support. They were in shop, rolling fresh brigadeiros! It was exciting to see, and they were also super friendly, informative, and passionate about the product! I tried a few brigadeiros. The first being, the classic chocolate one. It's rolled in chocolate sprinkled and loaded with....richness! Yes, these mini Brazilian treats are rich, so keep that in mind. I have a big sweet tooth, so I don't mind it at all. I loved the rich, chocolate, fudge-like center. It's so interesting because it's fudge-y, but not quite fudge....hard to explain. My best explanation would be that it's....magic! Lol! I also tried this cute black and white brigadeiro. This one was probably my favorite, as it gave a combination of flavors. The third one I tried was banana flavor, which was also super rich, yet tasty and similar in taste to banana bread! Aside from brigadeiros, Brigadeiro Bakery does offer a plethora of other yummy baked goods. I also tried their chocolate brigadeiro cake, which is loaded with that same fudge-y, chocolatey goodness that you get in their traditional brigadeiros! I also got their peanut butter cookie sandwich, loaded with chocolate! Lastly, was the carrot cake cup, which was layered with that same chocolate! The carrot cake itself was super fresh and fluffy! I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to BB! I love trying international desserts. I need to do more of it!

    Amazing place. Friendly people and flavors are amazing. Tried their pão de queijo, brigadeiro and their 4 leches cake. All were so delicious!

    Truffles
    Alison A.

    The truffles here are amazing for anyone with a big sweet tooth. I really enjoyed the chocolate one and the black and white one was nice for the texture and flavor (my favorite of the trio). I also got the cheese bread which was a very nice appetizer. Would definitely go again to try more sweets

The cookie I was most excited for was the corn cookie and the chocolate chip also looked really good. Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed by the black & white cookie because for some reason I thought it was a chocolate cookie with white chocolate chips, but it was actually just a regular cookie with black and white chips lol. The cookies themselves were really solid though. Nice light crisp around the edges with a chewy center without being overly gooey or underbaked. Definitely on the thicker side too, which I liked. Next time I'll have to try one of their espresso drinks!

The Jeju Green Tangerine Matcha honestly just tastes like a tangerine selter drink but in the best way, because I don't typically enjoy seltzer or carbonated beverages. I really enjoy the flavor and the carbonation isn't too strong, probably because I brought it home to drink. I don't really taste the matcha but I would definitely still order this again. 2. Matcha Einspanner. This is my first time having an Einspanner so I have no idea what I was expecting but this is DELICIOUS. It's so silky and smooth and the TASTE is just right up my alley. The matcha is light but you can still taste it. Absolutely, would drink this all the time if I could. 3. Purple Sweet Potato Latte. This. This. Omg, why haven't I tried this sooner?! The first sip and initial taste, I almost tasted nothing, just milk. And then all of a sudden, there's an explosion of flavor in your mouth. As a sweet potato lover, I was in heaven. I have absolutely no words for this drink, just try it. 100/10 recommend. This is probably my favorite one out of the 3 that I bought. I went around ... 2:45PM on a Friday and most of the seats were taken, if I remember correctly. There were a decent amount of seats and the space was decent. I liked the minimal aesthetic they had for the design of the interior. Not to forget, the staff at the register was absolutely wonderful, she answered all my questions, she's so sweet. I think I'm disappointed that I haven't tried this place sooner. Y'all get out of your comfort zone and try the Purple Sweet Potato Latte !! Or if not, just try this place out. I will definitely be recommending the Purple Sweet Potato Latte to all my family and friends.

I ordered an iced matcha einspanner ($6.95) with oat milk ($0.75) and loved that it already comes with a shot of espresso, so it was essentially a dirty matcha einspanner. I tried each layer on its own before mixing everything together and it was all really good. The matcha cream is the right amount of sweet and creamy and you can taste the matcha with just a hint of coffee. Since I'm a coffee fiend I added a bit more espresso when I got back to the hotel and it tasted even better while still keeping the matcha as the dominant flavor. Next time I would ask for less ice since it was freezing that morning, but on a warmer day the ice level would be perfect. Would love to come back to try their other drinks or order the einspanner again as a hot drink.

I've worked in restaurants and bars long enough to understand that staff drinking happens, but this was on another level entirely. I came in with a group of friends and one of the bartenders, Will, was so visibly drunk that it made the entire experience uncomfortable. Slurred speech, wobbling behind the bar, taking orders while chewing food with his mouth open -- it was honestly embarrassing to watch. He looked like he absolutely did not want to be there. At one point, my group had been trying to get his attention for another round for quite a while while he stood around talking with coworkers. We then watched staff take a shot together, and when he finally came over he burped mid-conversation and literally had whatever he had just been drinking dribbling down his neckbeard. That was the moment where the whole thing went from unprofessional to just gross. What made it worse was that it didn't seem isolated to one employee. Throughout the night we watched staff openly taking shots and drinking behind the bar like it was a house party instead of a business. There's a difference between bar culture and complete lack of professionalism, and this crossed that line hard. One of the friends I was with actually frequents the DUMBO location and said that the last time she was there, the same bartender also seemed intoxicated, which makes this feel less like a bad night and more like an ongoing issue. The DUMBO location itself is in an amazing spot, which makes it even more disappointing. But ownership seriously needs to get control of what's going on there before someone gets hurt or the place develops a reputation for having drunk staff on the clock. Unfortunately, the experience was uncomfortable enough that my girlfriends and I won't be coming back. I genuinely hope the employee mentioned gets help if this is a regular thing, because nobody should be working service in that condition.
