A family recipe.
A brigadeiro for everyone.
Sprinkle+Bean was born from four decades of Brazilian family gatherings, the irresistible smell of a kitchen full of brigadeiros, and a belief that the best gifts are the ones nobody's ever tasted before.
The best gifts are made with love and family.
While I began the business just a few years ago, the soul of Sprinkle+Bean goes back much farther. Four decades of fond memories and family gatherings inspired me to want to provide that same love and happiness in the form of brigadeiros — a classic Brazilian chocolate confection made from condensed milk, butter, and cocoa — that will forever hold a special place in my heart.
My Brazilian parents came to America for new opportunities many years ago. Growing up with them around New York City, I can recall the warmth of our tight knit family and how everyone, even strangers, were warmly welcomed into our home. I'll never forget our Brazilian gatherings, bursting at the seams with guests, full of love and laughter and always – without exception – the beautiful, handmade brigadeiro. It brings a smile to my face everytime I think of introducing my American friends to brigadeiros and how eager they would be for the next time they would get to enjoy this delicious dessert.
A gift business is born.
After studying business and working within the financial sector, I longed for the personal touch and hospitality that I had grown up with. After getting married, my husband and I moved to Miami. Maybe I was inspired by the warm weather or the warm-hearted community, but I was inspired to try my hand at retail and opened up multiple food and gift shop locations. I found my calling! The business provided me with an outlet for both my creativity and financial background, but after 15 years of success, I felt a calling to begin something new, a business inspired by the brigadeiro.
I sold my business and with a dash of entrepreneurial zest and a hearty helping of family support, Sprinkle+Bean was born in 2020. For me, it's the perfect marriage of my passion for gift-giving and my love for my Brazilian heritage.
