In the Douro region, in any show or pilgrimage there is this one traditional sweet from Baião. The Biscoito da Teixeira (Teixeira’s biscuit) has a rectangular shape, a dark color and strong flavor. 
This candy is sold in "folhetas" ("small leaf"). The original recipe is very old but one of the secrets is to be baked in wood ovens. This delicacy is always present on feast days, but throughout the year it can be found in the Douro markets.
