Brazi Bites

Husband-and-wife team Junea Rocha and Cameron MacMullin are the Portland-based entrepreneurs behind Brazi Bites (www.brazibites.com). The couple met in 2001 in Winter Park, Colo., while working the ski season at a local resort. They maintained a long-distance relationship from Brazil to Portland, and Junea eventually moved to the United States in 2005 to be with Cameron.

In 2009, they decided to work on the concept for Brazi Bites, which meant testing more than 75 recipes with 30 different cheeses to achieve the perfect combination – all based off Junea’s family recipe from her mother in Brazil. After some additional schooling, in-depth research, and preparation including trips to Brazil, the couple successfully launched the company in April 2011. In 2013 Cameron was diagnosed with high gluten sensitivity, solidifying their mission to not only share the Brazilian cheese bread with the US but to provide the gluten-free community with a delicious bread with taste and texture unlike anything on the market.

When not managing their growing company, Junea and Cameron can be found exploring Portland’s diverse restaurant scene as well as enjoying outdoor activities like mountain biking, snowshoeing, camping and hiking. They love Portland’s buzzing and cooperative food culture, even more so now with the success of Brazi Bites.
