  • Three Kings Day: Roscón de Reyes Cake

    Jan 3, 2025 - Jan 6, 2025
    Order your King Cake today! "El Dia de los Reyes Magos" is a traditional Spanish holiday celebrated with one of the most delicious treats you'll ever taste. At Jaleo DC, we're selling full Roscón de Reyes (King Cakes) for you to enjoy at home (or at the restaurant!). This brioche-like cake is shaped into a ring like the Three Kings' crowns, and decorated with dried fruit, nuts and sugar. Each cake holds a hidden bean and king figure. As tradition goes, if you find the bean, you have to buy the cake next year, but if you find the king, you'll have good luck for the whole year! Get yours before they run out!
