Behind Maripostres
Hi, I'm María ♡
Maripostres is María, mariposa (butterfly) and postres (desserts): my name, the lightness I look for in every dessert, and what I love making most.
I make every zefir and every cake by hand, in small batches, in Río Oro, Santa Ana.
Message me on WhatsApp and we'll make your order just the way you like it.

What is zefir?
Zefir is a light and airy fruit-based dessert made with fruit purée, egg whites, sugar and agar agar.
It has a soft, delicate texture, similar to a marshmallow, but with a fresh fruity flavor.
Traditional zefir and zefir flowers are made from the same base and are essentially the same dessert.
The difference is mainly the shape and the range of flavors. Traditional zefir can be made with a wider variety of fruits, while not every fruit works well for creating zefir flowers.
