Pastel de Nata

Pastel de Nata

Our pastel de nata is a traditional Portuguese custard tart, made with a crisp, flaky puff pastry shell and filled with a smooth, baked custard. Freshly baked and finished until lightly caramelised on top, it delivers the contrast of textures that makes this pastry so distinctive.
 
Rich but balanced, with a delicate sweetness and a golden finish, this is a classic pastel de nata made the proper way. Baked fresh for our markets, it’s the kind of pastry people search for when looking for a fresh Portuguese custard tart near them, rather than something mass-produced.
 
Our pastel de nata is:
 
  • Made with crisp puff pastry
  • Filled with a baked custard centre
  • Freshly baked in-house
  • Lightly caramelised on top
  • Available to find at our markets

How should i keep my bread?

 

We recommend keeping your bread wrapped in the brown paper bag we give you and then either an airtight container or a plastic bag tied up. This ensures the moisture stays in the bread and it won't go hard. Keeping your bread in the fridge tends to shorten it's life.

​

We don't add any preservatives in our bread, so expect it to last approximately four days (this will vary slightly on the type of bread).

​

Can i freeze my bread?

 

Yes! Our bread is baked fresh every day (unlike supermarket bakeries who bake from frozen) so it freezes perfectly.

​

If you want to freeze a whole loaf (or half) wrap it in foil and then a plastic bag and freeze it as soon as you can for best results. When you need it, pop it in the oven at 180° in the foil (straight from the freezer) for about 25 minutes for a whole loaf or about 15 minutes for a half loaf.

​

This should come out like a fresh loaf. Alternatively you can slice your bread and freeze it. Taking it out and putting it in the toaster as and when you need it.

​
