This is the only cooking class in PORTUGAL where you'll learn about pastry making with a professional pastry chef, inside a real Portuguese bakery!
Since 2018, we have been conducting baking workshops to teach the recipe for Portugal’s most iconic pastry, the Pastel de Nata. Also known as Portuguese Custard Tarts or Egg Tarts, these pastries are a must-try for anyone passionate about sweets and Portuguese cuisine!
We have welcomed thousands of baking enthusiasts to our bakery in Lisbon, Portugal. Here's what our previous students have to say! Our HANDS-ON CLASSES are hosted by award-winning chef João Batalha, co-founder of the Pastel de Nata concept store Nat'elier, or by other experienced in-house pastry chefs such as Silvia Sousa and Valeria Barros da Costa.
We offer individual courses, masterclasses in small groups, and private experiences. We also provide in-depth training and business consultancy for professional bakers, available both in Lisbon and online. We love hosting team-building events. Our previous clients include major companies like Amazon, LinkedIn, Google, OLX, and more.
