I was in Lisbon on Easter day and we had one of those cakes. It's a yeast dough - rather like a sweet bun or brioche - shaped like a nest with a hard-boiled egg in it. It was nice, but not as good as the pasteis com nata, which were excellent. And they have little cakes shaped like castles too. Portugal seems to have a lot of possibilities if you like cake.
