Roscón de Reyes recipe: how to make the Spanish Christmas Cake in no-time!
published on 20 December, 2020 at 14:52
Roscón means “cake in the shape of a crown” and de reyes means “kings”, which gives us “crown of the kings”.
All over Spain, it is not usually Santa who makes the children’s eyes shine by offering gifts, but it is rather the Magi, to whom all the Spanish children write their letters of wishes.
Here's how to make roscòn at home:
