About Papos de Anjo
Papos de anjo (angel's cheeks) are a delicate convent sweet — small portions of beaten eggs, poached then immersed in sugar syrup flavoured with lemon peel and cinnamon. They are incredibly light and sweet, as the name suggests — worthy of feeding angels. At A Pharmácia da Avó, papos de anjo represent the poetry of Portuguese convent pastry.
