As part of the typical sweets of the Algarve, these small cakes molded in detail in a wide range of shapes, are made with almond dough and filled with egg jam, thought to be of Arab origin. It is believed that they originate from convent sweets and that they have become traditional in the Algarve because this region is an important producer of almonds. During the process of making these cakes, the almonds are grated very well and mixed with sugar and egg whites until soft. Balls are made, opening a cavity to place the egg strands and molding according to the desired shape. In this final phase, the artistic work is the result of creativity that allows obtaining the most varied forms and aspects.

These candies are well known for their colorful and diverse appearance, most often resembling fruits, vegetables, but also animals, objects and other finishes that give them an inviting appearance. Here imagination has no limits.

Orders are normally dispatched by courier (DPD) and can be sent to any location in mainland Portugal or practically all countries within the European Community (see list). Unfortunately, due to very strict customs restrictions, we are no longer able to ship orders to the UK. This situation may change in the future, depending on the evolution of extra-community agreements. If you prefer, you can choose a collection point for your order. If the delivery is made in Albufeira, we will deliver it by hand free of charge.

An important point to highlight is the need to have the complete address and, above all, leave a contact telephone number for the country where the order is being sent. For example, if the shipping address is in France, the contact must be a telephone with a French code, not Portuguese, because the courier will only call a number in the country if he needs more information about the delivery location.

We only use cardboard boxes specially designed for postal shipping. Products are packaged and protected in the best possible way, using only recycled or recyclable material. The filling of the box is made from shreds of colored paper, which gives it a cheerful and appealing appearance. We believe, however, that the important thing is the quality of the content and not sophisticated packaging, which is often discarded immediately and ends up being another environmental pollutant. At the end of the year, there is the option of choosing a box with Christmas effects, but it is still made of recyclable cardboard.
