Confeitaria Nacional shared by @afar says: ""Which Cake to Taste? You will feast with your eyes as soon you enter here. Founded in 1829, this confectionery store is considered one of the best in Lisbon , having won international prizes and serving, in the old days, as the official confectioner of the royal family. The King Cake, a very famous Christmas cake in Portugal, was born here; the recipe was brought from Paris in 1850. You will also find miniature pastries: Try to resist. But there is more than cakes. You'll find a beautiful interior with a marble counter, carved woodwork, tiles, a mirrored ceiling, and a mural of high historical value. And on the second floor, there is now a tearoom."" on Postcard
