My favourite are the "Lazos de Hojaldre", a pastry made with honey.

They are called by different names, but I use to ask for "Lazos de Hojaldre" or "Lazos de Hojaldre con miel".



Usually are shorter like this:


Just awesome.

EDIT to add three words:

Don't - miss - it.

Believe me.

OK, my very 'guiri' significant other, agrees with MMan on the fresas con nata, since, apparently, you don't get sugary whipped cream in many places, something I did not know. smile

And he says chirimoyas are a very typical dessert of Spain! laugh , although they're original from Peru, because he had never seen any before he moved to Spain.

Mmm...in over 3 weeks we'll be in Madrid to celebrate his b-day....I can't wait to taste the 'tarta Saint Honoré' from Vait (www.vait.es) that I'm planning to order (I REALLY hope he doesn't read this!) eek

Quite a few years ago I was on the despedida de soltero or stag night (Don't know the "American" for this) of a Gibraltarian friend of mine and he loved flan too.

He's not had one since that night, probably because he ate twelve, one after the other with his hands tied behind his back frown

Twelve .. heaven cool It's only like eating one very large one after all.

Sigh ... one very large flan ... sigh ...

I wouldn't need to have my hands tied behind my back. Although it's an interesting thought wink
