Today is Epiphany
in France and we eat � Galettes des Rois �. In each Galette there are two hidden
charms. One person cuts the cakes into
slices and another says who each piece is for � so there is no cheating. The two people who find the charms in their
piece of cake become King and Queen.
These are mine � homemade, of course!

We also have this tradition in Spain. We call it "Rosc�n de Reyes", the traditional one has nothing inside, but you can find them now filled with whipped cream or chocolate. There are two little surprises in it. One of them is a bean, if you find it you will have to pay for the "Rosc�n"; the other one is a little figure. If you find this one, you will be crowned king or queen.
Yours seem delicious!!!

In Cincinnati (and I think in the rest of the US), the King �s Cake is a tradition for Mardi Gras, rather than for Epiphany. I don �t know why. Bruce |
