The ensaimada, that Mallorcan delicacy that conquers palates with its smooth texture and unmistakable flavour, is elevated to new heights of exquisiteness with a variant that delights even the most demanding palates: the ensaimada stuffed with angel hair. What is the Ensaimada stuffed with angel hair? The ensaimada, an emblem of Balearic pastries, is a sweet pastry characterised by its sponginess and spiral shape. Filled with angel hair, a sweet and delicate jam made from pumpkin, sugar and a touch of lemon, this delicacy reaches a unique level of sophistication and flavour. Origins and history The ensaimada has its roots on the island of Mallorca, where it is believed to have been introduced by Arab confectioners during the Muslim occupation of the region. Its name derives from ‘saïm’, which means butter in Catalan, one of its main ingredients.
