The best pastry shops Aveiro

Opened in 1856, the Confeitaria Peixinho was the very first merchant ofovos molhes in Aveiro and Portugal. Taken over by Alberto Gomes in 1973, the family business is going strong with its Aveiro specialties: the inevitable ovos molhes, castanhas d'ovos (egg yolk and cooked sugar), broinhas d'ovos (egg yolk and flour) and raivas cookies, very popular with the locals. The store, elegantly decorated and very chic, has a counter to place orders and a small tasting room on the floor. An institution!
