Empanada Gourmet offers a wide variety of Uruguayan baked goods: empanadas (beef, chicken, rice and beans, breakfast etc.), masitas (petit fours), alfajores (cookies sandwiched with dulce de leche, chocolate, or fruit paste), bizcochos (flaky pastries), pasta frolla, fruit tarts, vegetable pies, and much more. Uruguayan cuisine is a combination of cuisines from several countries including France, Spain, Italy, Germany, and Portugal. Our family descended from immigrants from these countries who colonized Uruguay and brought their own recipes. We recreate these treasured recipes so our customers can experience a part of Uruguayan culture.
