Nova Era Bakery, located at 1995 Salem Road North in Ajax, is a popular destination in the Durham Region for those seeking the authentic flavors of a traditional Portuguese café. Since its arrival in the community, it has become well-known for its handcrafted-from-scratch pastries, particularly the iconic pastéis de nata (custard tarts) and bola de Berlim (vanilla cream-filled donuts). Beyond sweets, the bakery offers a robust selection of savory options, including the tosta mista sandwich and Portuguese cod cakes, all of which can be enjoyed alongside their rich, aromatic espresso and coffee blends.
