La vida de Annie

Roscón de Reyes.

New State of Alarm day 71.
Today we bought our Epiphany cake from Lidl.
Spanish Twelfth Night Bread (Roscon de Reyes) is a traditional dessert, served the night before or the morning of Reyes or Epiphany on Jan. 6. Dia de Reyes or simply Reyes is the day when children in Spain receive gifts from the Reyes Magos–Wise Men or Magi—the three kings who brought baby Jesus gifts.
So Wednesday is the big day for gift-giving, bigger than Christmas.
I just noticed the short eat-by date on the box, so I guess a kilogram of cake will have to be consumed pretty quick. Hope it's nice - I wanted the crema version not the nata, but those were sold out.
