Pastel de nata kit to bake at home

Lisbon's most famous pastry, made in your own kitchen

Crispy puff pastry, a creamy custard heart and a light dusting of cinnamon: the pastel de nata is the taste of Portugal in a single bite. With the pastel de nata kit by Os Segredos de Belém, you no longer need to travel to Lisbon to enjoy authentic Portuguese custard tarts — you bake them yourself, at home, whenever you feel like it.

The secret of the custard, made simple

Getting the custard just right is usually the hardest part of the recipe. This kit takes care of it for you: the pastel de nata custard mix, the cinnamon, the icing sugar and all the tins are already measured and ready to use. You simply add puff pastry and milk. No complicated recipe, no hunting for ingredients, no guesswork — just the pleasure of baking.

What else you need

• A very hot oven, ideally 250–280 °C.

Frequently asked questions

How many pastéis de nata does one kit make?

One kit makes 9 pastéis de nata. For a family or friends' get-together, allow one kit for 3 to 4 people.

Why is the puff pastry not included?

Puff pastry is a fresh product that must be kept refrigerated and would not survive shipping. Buying it at the last minute gives you fresh, crisp pastry, while the kit keeps for 12 months without refrigeration.

Is the kit suitable for beginners?

Yes. It is designed to be easy, even if you have never baked before: allow about 15 minutes of preparation, plus baking time. It's also a great activity to do with children.

What temperature and baking time?

Preheat your oven to its maximum temperature (usually 250–280 °C) and bake for about 12 to 15 minutes, until the pastry is golden and the custard has dark caramelised spots.

How long does delivery take?

Orders are processed within 48 hours, then delivered in 48 to 72 working hours. You receive a tracking email as soon as your parcel ships.
