Everything about
our brigadeiros.

Answers to the most common questions about Divine Delights, our handcrafted Brazilian brigadeiros, shipping across the USA, ingredients, and custom orders for events.

What is a brigadeiro?

A brigadeiro is a traditional Brazilian dessert truffle made from sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, butter, and chocolate sprinkles. Invented in Brazil in the 1940s, brigadeiros are the most iconic Brazilian sweet and a staple at every Brazilian birthday, wedding, and family celebration. Authentic brigadeiros are always hand-rolled fresh — never mass-produced — which is why they have a soft, fudge-like texture unlike any American chocolate truffle.

Where can I buy authentic Brazilian brigadeiros in the United States?

Divine Delights is one of the few US-based businesses that ships authentic, handcrafted Brazilian brigadeiros nationwide. Founded by Brazilian-born Andressa, every brigadeiro is hand-rolled fresh to order in Winter Garden, Florida using real dairy, fine chocolate, and her family recipe from Brazil. You can order online at getdivinedelights.com for nationwide shipping or local pickup in the Orlando area.

Where can I buy brigadeiros in Orlando, Florida?

Divine Delights is based in Winter Garden, FL (Orlando metro area) and offers local pickup and local delivery throughout the Orlando region. You can place an order on getdivinedelights.com and choose pickup at checkout. For weddings and large events in Central Florida, Divine Delights delivers directly to your venue.

What is the difference between a brigadeiro and a chocolate truffle?

While both are round chocolate treats, a brigadeiro and a classic European truffle are very different desserts. A French truffle is made with chocolate ganache (cream + chocolate), is denser, and has a dusting of cocoa. A brigadeiro is made by cooking condensed milk with cocoa and butter until thickened, which gives it a softer, fudgier, chewier texture, and it is traditionally rolled in chocolate sprinkles instead of cocoa powder. Brigadeiros are also much sweeter and are served at room temperature.

Do you ship brigadeiros nationwide across the USA?

Yes — Divine Delights ships brigadeiros across the entire United States. Orders are carefully packaged fresh to order and dispatched with expedited shipping to preserve quality. For summer and hot-weather states, orders can be shipped with dry-ice insulation on request. Shipping cost and options are calculated at checkout based on your ZIP code.

How long do brigadeiros stay fresh?

Divine Delights brigadeiros are handcrafted fresh to order with no artificial preservatives. They stay fresh at room temperature for 2–3 days and in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. For longer storage they can be refrigerated in an airtight container. For the best taste and texture, let refrigerated brigadeiros come back to room temperature for about 15 minutes before eating.

Are brigadeiros gluten-free?

Yes — traditional Brazilian brigadeiros contain no wheat flour and are naturally gluten-free. Divine Delights' classic recipes (chocolate brigadeiro, beijinho, pistacchio, dulce de leche) are all gluten-free. Some seasonal or specialty flavors may contain gluten ingredients — check the product page or contact us directly for specific allergen information.

Are Divine Delights brigadeiros authentic Brazilian brigadeiros?

Yes — authentic is the entire point. Founder Andressa was born and raised in Brazil surrounded by family celebrations where brigadeiros were central to every gathering. She uses her family's traditional recipe and the same technique her mother used, never mass-produced, never short-cut with artificial ingredients. Divine Delights is one of the most authentic sources of real Brazilian brigadeiros in the United States.

Who is Andressa, the founder of Divine Delights?

When she moved to the United States, she brought that tradition with her and turned it into Divine Delights: handcrafted, premium brigadeiros that carry the heart of Brazil in every bite.
