Confeitaria Petúlia

Years of experience and high-quality ingredients make Petúlia one of the city’s best pastry shops. For special occasions, it’s hard to beat: its pão-de-ló sponge cake (a popular Easter treat) and bolo-rei fruit cake (for Christmas) are marvellous. So are the húngaros (chocolate- dipped biscuits), bolinhos de coco (coconut cookies) and savoury snacks such as pies and meat croquetes.
