Introducing ¡Adelante!™ Plain and Cajeta-filled Churros, the perfect side item to complement your Latin and Hispanic inspired menus.
The history of the churro is richly debated, but the dough which is piped
through a star-shaped metal tip and then deep fried, is credited to Spanish and
Portuguese shepherds. Churros were the answer to a portable snack while
tending their Churra sheep - featuring minimal ingredients that was easy to
prepare and fry - perfect for their transient lifestyle.
Today’s churro maintains the star like shape which creates crispy ridges that hide the delicious cake/donut like texture that becomes even better with a heavy sprinkle of cinnamon sugar. Adelante Churros come frozen and include the signature cinnamon sugar packet sprinkle - making it a turnkey product for operators. Cajeta is a rich, traditional Mexican caramel sauce made by simmering milk and sugar to create a sweet and tangy and golden-brown color similar to dulce de leche.
Flex your creative muscle by trying plain churros with a savory twist, as a dipper for queso fundido, or serve them with ice cream or yogurt parfaits, layered with fruit, and sauces. A build your own churro bar, or a grab and go add on to the Contigo® Taqueria program as a shared desserts with a trio of sauces are other ways to bring Adelante Churros to the spotlight they deserve as a global craze popular from theme parks to food trucks and cafés and bakeries.
