Puerto Rican puff pastries are to Puerto Rico what biscuits and gravy is to the South. Comfort food. These specialty puff pastries will satisfy your sweet tooth every time.
What is a quesito? Imagine rich cream cheese wrapped in a warm, melt-in-your-mouth crust, drizzled with a light honey glaze. Now imagine eating just one.
We can't either.
Since we specialize in Puerto Rican comfort food, we bake other delectable Puerto Rican pastries too. We can make peach pillows, stars, and guava pastries.
“ You can't buy happiness, but you can buy a quesito which is basically the same thing! ”- Hecda Leon
Evelyn Lugo founded Palms and Pastries to continue the legacy of the quesito.
She recognized the value of knowing how to make a product exclusive to her homeland of Puerto Rico. Since quesitos are a specialty pastry, she took classes to learn how to make them and finally perfected the art. Through Palms and Pastries, she hopes to preserve the quality of these sinfully sweet confections.
Making quesitos is an art. Evelyn does everything by hand, from selecting ingredients and locating the specialty glaze unique to Puerto Rico to carefully filling and wrapping the pastries.
