It is very hard to pin point the best for there are many outstanding manufacturers and we can witness this in a regular meeting fair of doçaria conventual in Alcobaça. There is one manufacturer though, which can be rightfully set above all others. We call it Fábrica dos Ovos Moles (soft eggs factory) or just the Garagem (garage). This is because it 's really the factory where they are made but also because the waiting room for the customers wait in the comfortable adapted garage of the building they have been servicing Aveiro families for many decades. Today it 's no longer about Aveiro. They have become very recognized nation wide and are known abroad. Any sweet you chose is going to be amazing but the most traditional is the Ovos Moles de Aveiro (Aveiro soft eggs). This is a very sweet but incredibly balances and fresh egg past which is covered by the unforgettable crackling white bread that is served in the Catholic mass service. The body of Christ. I can say that this is indeed a religious experience and risking to be taken as a heretic I have to say this is the best way to have access to the 'body of Christ '. It is undoubtedly a divine experience!
