Pastel is one of the most loved bar foods in Brazil. This savory pastry is usually served inside small baskets and it is ordered by the dozen or half dozen; so friends gather around the bar table to munch on the pastelzinhos (small pastel) while chatting, drinking a cold beer and having a good time.
There are three types of dry pastels: soft, hard and pencil. - Soft pastels are the most fragile, as they have a slightly powdery texture. They are offered in a wide range of shades, thus not limiting the artist's choice of colour.
