A bionico is a snack salad made with papaya, cantaloupe, apple, strawberries and banana. The fruit is mixed in a combination of creams, which include sour cream, sweetened condensed milk and at times, cottage cheese. It is called a bionico, meaning “bionic” because it is considered an energy snack with so much fruit included.
Because I’ve gotten to know Parmalat Nata Crema Para Desayuno very well. This delicious nata was a perfect candidate to be part of the bionico mix. The result is a creamier version than the original. The cream turned out silky, rich and flavorful, and coats the fruit really well.

Permalat Crema para Desayuno is nata. What is nata? Nata is the layer of cream that rises to the top when boiling milk. Its neutral flavor can be modified to be part of the most richest dessert, like I did here, or seasoned to be enjoyed as a dip or topping.
Paramalat Crema para Desayuno can also be enjoyed right out of the container. It goes perfect on a bagel, toast, accompanied with berries or dolloped over jelly or marmalade. Heavenly.
