Under Rio’s summer sun, Rio Sucrée launches a menu by Emanuel Pinheiro blending French pastry craft with Brazilian flavors.
The Barra da Tijuca patisserie presents a vibrant summer menu full of color and tropical freshness. Led by chef Emanuel Pinheiro, the new selection combines refined French technique with the heart of Brazilian cuisine.
Entremets that dazzle the eye
Highlights include three new entremets, delicate desserts using the trompe-l’œil technique that play with visual and textural illusions. The Mango Entremet (R$ 28) features mango mousse, a tropical touch of passion fruit, and almond biscuit on a cocoa sablée base.
The Cupuaçu Entremet (R$ 29.90) pairs Amazonian fruit mousse with 56% Brazilian chocolate, white fruit gel, and cumaru syrup. The Lime Entremet (R$ 28) balances lemon curd and 33% white chocolate with a refreshing citrus core.
Refreshing summer options
The new artisan gelato cups (R$ 25) come in flavors like dulce de leche, coconut, strawberry, Brazilian vanilla bean, and chocolate. The classic affogato (R$ 26.90) is a highlight for coffee lovers.
For lighter bites, the menu adds the Tropical Salad (R$ 28.90), avocado toast (R$ 29.90), and creamy chicken empadão (R$ 25.90 per slice). To drink, guests can cool off with Pink Lemonade (R$ 18.90), pineapple-mint juice (R$ 18), or a jar of Tropical Clericot (R$ 95.90).
The chef behind the creations
Chef Emanuel Pinheiro blends international pastry mastery with Brazilian authenticity. With experience at Le Pré Catelan, Hilton, and Sofitel, as well as teaching at Le Cordon Bleu, he brings an artistic and emotional approach to every creation.
Founded by Emanuel Pinheiro, Camila Bastiani, and Giorgian de Arrascaeta, Rio Sucrée has become a benchmark of artisanal excellence in Barra da Tijuca, uniting French finesse and Brazilian warmth.
