About Natas do ceu

Natas Do Ceu, translating to "Cream from Heaven," is a traditional Portuguese dessert celebrated for its velvety texture and rich flavor. This indulgent treat is made primarily from eggs, sugar, cream, and biscuits, creating layers of custard and whipped cream topped with a delicate crumble. While it is undeniably delicious, its nutritional profile leans toward being a high-calorie dessert due to its sugar and cream content. The eggs provide a source of protein and several essential vitamins, but this is offset by the high amounts of sugar and fats, which should be enjoyed in moderation. Originating from Portugal, this dish is a testament to the country's love for decadent, egg-based desserts. Natas Do Ceu is best appreciated as an occasional reward rather than a regular dessert, allowing its indulgence to be savored without compromising a balanced diet.
