My nephew who’s in highschool, visited me in Portugal and fell in love with pasteis de nata. This is his first attempt. Estou muito orgulhoso dele.

1. That looks pretty good! Portuguese approval here.

2. Nicely done

3. Yup, i would eat that. at least is recognizable (Not wanting to be mean), not like the “caldo verde” some media outlets shown.

4. Looks really good. Now he just need to taste them to make sure they taste as good as they look

5. Finally a foreigner that gets it. Good job

6. I wold eat it with an expresso 😁

7. That was a good attempt.

8. These look delicious! I love pasteis de nata, one of my reasons for moving to Lisbon hahaha

9. Just a bit too small for me. It would make eating them just too easy, they’d run out real quick.

10. Desde que não os coma à colher

11. Nice attempt, especially for a first try. I’m sure I wouldn’t be able to make one this good on my first try. They should just be a little bigger, and have a little more cream inside.

12. Does it translate to ‘nothing pastry’? Why is that?

    Edit:

    (I love when Reddit downvotes you because you have a question)

13. Did he make those? Look good

14. TRAGAM A PADEIRA >!para felicitar o rapaz. great job! !<

15. Great job!

16. Looks amazing!

17. This size is pretty dangerous… I would eat then like popcorn

18. Bem melhor que os pastéis de nata do Lidl polaco.

19. I organize a popular [pastel de nata workshop](https://airbnb.com/pasteldenata) in Lisbon, but also online. If you send me a DM I would be happy to hook you up with a free ticket. You could use it for yourself or as a nice gift to your nephew as a sign of appreciation for his efforts! 😉 PS: already super-well done on his part, by the way!!

    Edit: Thanks for the award! 1st ever! I must just go and celebrate with a pastel de nata.. hahaa! 😛

20. Show us a butt shot, we wanna see the pastry swirls…

21. Not bad… Not bad at all.

22. Looking pretty good

23. great!!!

24. Looks delicious

25. Now add some spaghetti and lettuce

26. My only advice would be to try and make the crust slimmer, but great effort wanyway, 4/5

27. Maybe a couple minutes more in the oven. A bit too light but not so bad.

28. Até aqui no Brasil o povo ama pastel de nata, bom de mais 😋

29. If you like them or your nephew then you must go tl Belém, they have the best Pasteis de Nata i ever tried

30. I did that exact same baking project after a visit to Portugal, too!!! Such a tasty treat 😀

31. He will be a king when he starts to make francesinha! 👑

32. Qual a vossa opinião acerca dos pastéis de nata com chocolate? Pessoalmente já experimentei e achei crime 😬😂
