Bolo de Rolo's origins are rooted in the Portuguese 'colchão de noiva' (bride's mattress), a rolled cake filled with nuts. When the Portuguese arrived in Pernambuco, Brazil, they adapted the recipe using locally available ingredients like guava paste, transforming it into the layered delicacy we know today. The thinness of the layers represents skill and sophistication, evolving from a simple cake to a symbol of Pernambuco's culinary heritage.

Rolling Technique
Roll the cake tightly and evenly to avoid air pockets. The first roll should be very tight around the filling, and subsequent rolls should build upon this foundation.
Guava Paste Consistency
The guava paste should be spread thinly and evenly to ensure a consistent ratio of cake to filling in each layer. Slightly warmed guava paste is easier to spread.
Even Baking
Bake the cake layers quickly and evenly. Overbaking will make the cake dry and difficult to roll without cracking. A hot oven for a short amount of time is crucial.
Cooling Time
Let each layer cool slightly before spreading the guava paste. This prevents the filling from melting and becoming too runny.
