Brought back two of these last week from the D'Oliveiras gift shop and I've already ate them both.
Does anyone know where these can be ordered, or better yet a great recipe?
I found a few similar threads, but apparently no luck recreating them.
Anyone figure it out?

Re: Bolo de Mel (Madeira sugarcane syrup cake)
I see that you are in Boston, so you may want to check out the annual Madeira feast in New Bedford on the first weekend in August:

They sell bolo de mel (and other desserts) at the Museum Cafe (although not quite as good as what I had at D'Oliveiras or Borges).

Also... nearby in Fall River is Portugalia. Great market with lots of Portuguese items... they might have some there as well.

I know the Portugalia Marketplace well. I stop by periodically to stock up on wine and Portuguese specialties. I will certainly look for these next visit.
I may also try experimenting with the recipe I saw in an earlier thread.
