About Barritas
Barritas are a popular snack originating from Mexican cuisine, known for their soft, sweet, and fruity flavor. These bar-shaped pastries typically consist of a tender, cake-like exterior filled with a fruity jam core, such as strawberry, pineapple, or guava. Made with enriched flour, sugar, and fruit fillings, Barritas provide a quick source of energy and are enjoyed as an on-the-go treat or light snack. However, they are also relatively high in added sugars and refined carbohydrates, which can contribute to spikes in blood sugar levels. While the fruit filling adds a hint of vitamins and natural sweetness, it’s often accompanied by preservatives and artificial flavorings. Barritas offer great convenience and satisfy sweet cravings, but they should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
