Portuguese egg tart

Overview

Portuguese egg tart, also known as Portuguese cream tart, caramel macchiato egg tart, and Portuguese tart in Hong Kong, Macao and Guangdong, is a small buttery pastry pie, a type of egg tart, characterized by its burnt surface (caramelized after overheating of sugar). In 1989, the Englishman Andrew Stow brought Portuguese tarts to Macau. After switching to British custard filling and reducing the amount of sugar, many people came to it and it became a famous snack in Macau.
