Description
These Pastéis de Nata are authentic Portuguese custard tartlets made in Portugal, featuring a rich, creamy egg custard inside an extra crisp, flaky shell. They weigh 2.1 oz each.
Shipped frozen in packs, they offer a traditional cafe experience straight from the oven
These iconic custard tarts trace their origins to the 18th century when monks at Lisbon's Jerónimos Monastery began making them. Because the convents and monasteries relied heavily on egg whites for starching religious habits and clearing wine, they were left with massive amounts of leftover egg yolks, leading to the creation of the famous sweet custard.
- Taste Profile: They offer the perfect balance of a rich, gently sweet filling and a contrasting flaky, blistered crust.
- Convenience: The tarts are pre-baked and frozen for easy prep—simply thaw and reheat or bake until the top is beautifully caramelized to recreate the classic bakery experience.
- Dietary Attributes: They are certified Kosher.
Preparation instructions: Preheat the oven to 428°F (220°C). Remove the frozen product from the package and place the tarts in their aluminium mould, directly on a baking tray in the middle position of the oven. Let the tarts thaw and heat for 12 minutes. Remove the tarts from the oven, then remove them from their aluminum mould and place them on absorbent paper before serving.
