Our Story

We founded DoceHaven Patisserie (pronounced: Doh-sayven) to share our passion for authentic Portuguese pastries with the community. Baking has always been at the heart of what we do, and we take joy in bringing traditional flavors to friends, family, and neighbors.

Many Portuguese sweets trace their origins back to the 15th century, crafted in the quiet sanctuaries of convents and monasteries where nuns and monks perfected the art of pastry. These recipes, filled with history and a touch of mystery, form the foundation of DoceHaven Patisserie, with our signature Pastel de Nata (Portuguese Custard Tart)—delicate, flaky tarts filled with rich, creamy custard—at the center of it all. Every pastry we create tells a story of history, craftsmanship, and tradition.

In our kitchen, we preserve these authentic flavors by handcrafting each pastry in small batches using quality ingredients. While our roots are deeply tied to Portugal, our journey in the U.S. has inspired us to explore new ways to elevate our pastries, introducing seasonal flavors, all while staying true to our heritage.

Nestled in the heart of Dallas, DoceHaven Patisserie is more than just a bakery—it’s a celebration of Portuguese tradition, culture, and the art of baking. Visit us and experience the rich heritage of Portugal, one Pastel de Nata at a time.
