It is not just the sunshine that makes a Portuguese Christmas special, there is also the ‘Bolo-rei’. No wonder this made it into one of my favourites for the Travel Photo 10 day challenge. Huge thanks again to Sue for nominating me and inspiring me to look back through my Christmas travel archives.
I know we are not meant to include an explanation but I suspect I will be asked lots of questions about this! So I have included below the original post. It is well worth reading as the reindeer band are something else and I’ve included ingredients for the absolutely scrumptious cake.
The amazing ‘Bolo-rei gigante de Olhão’
Somewhat surreal but great fun, joyful and delicious!
Mmmm, looks very tasty.
Really was (and is)!
