Even if Madeira isn’t the first destination we remember when we talk about shopping, it’s still impossible leaving without an heavier travel bag.
Madeira wine is certainly at the top of the shopping list, immediately followed by sugar cane honey, fennel drops and sugar cane honey cakes. On the other hand, the visitor can buy the traditional embroideries or the wicker and cork pieces. If possible, make room for the souvenirs with modern design and the works of newcomer creators from Madeira.
Shopping done, this Atlantic island will forever be remembered in houses around the world.
