About Us

The Pastel de Nata/Pasteis de Nata is a traditional Portuguese pastry (a.k.a. Portuguese Custard Tart, based on a Portuguese recipe from the XVIII century), filled with a traditional egg custard. Blasted at 300°C, making the custard boil, the result is a beautifully smooth, creamy filling with a slightly burned top and a layered light and crisp puff pastry as a base.

Madeira Patisserie was the first Portuguese pastelaria, that helped popularise Pastéis de Nata in Britain. Using high quality fresh ingredients Madeira Patisserie brought this to London in the 1980’s and now they can be purchased in many places all over the United Kingdom.
