Portuguese cakes, or 'bolos', have a rich history influenced by the country's maritime past, trade with the East, and the presence of convents. Spices from the East, like cinnamon and cloves, found their way into cakes, while convent baking traditions added complexity and refined techniques. These historical influences shaped the diverse range of 'bolos' found in Portugal today.

Portuguese cakes boast a delightful variety of flavors, ranging from the simple sweetness of sponge cakes to the rich, spiced profiles of traditional fruitcakes. Common flavors include almond, citrus (lemon and orange), cinnamon, chocolate, and various regional fruits.
The flavors in Portuguese cakes are often derived from high-quality ingredients like eggs, sugar, wheat flour, and butter. Almonds are frequently used, either ground into flour or as decorations. Citrus zest provides a bright, refreshing note, while spices like cinnamon and clove add warmth and depth. Some cakes incorporate regional ingredients such as port wine, Medronho (a strong fruit brandy), or local fruits like figs and carob.

Use Fresh Ingredients
High-quality, fresh ingredients, particularly eggs and butter, make a significant difference in the taste and texture of the cake.
Don't Overmix the Batter
Overmixing can lead to a tough cake. Mix the batter until just combined to ensure a light and tender crumb.
Cool Completely
Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting or slicing. This prevents the frosting from melting and makes it easier to handle the cake.
