Typical Spanish desserts
All around Spain we find different gastronomic traditions as for sweet and savoury. Each town and city gives a different touch to the same product so characteristic scents and flavours impose quality distinction to Spanish gastronomy.

Nougat
Along the year you can find different types of nougat in our boutiques in Marbella and Puerto Banus. It is a completely handmade product, elaborated at our installations in Marbella. For this ocassion hard nougat and from jijona were presented in the desserts buffet. But we have more varieties at disposal to choose for the wedding day.
Pestiños
Pestiño is a sweet well known in Andalusia. In the 16th Century it was already present and it is made out of flour, honey and olive oil. Its appearence and texture surely reminds us of some products from North Africa.
Borrachuelos
Related to pestiños, it is typical in Cordoba (Andalusia). Unlike pestiños, it incorporates wine or schnapp, clove and anise. And it is filled with ‘cabello de ángel’ (pumpkin strands in syrup).
Torrijas
Easter or Holy Week is near and this is maybe one of the typical Spanish desserts that can be seen the most during Lent and Holy Week. It is made out of bread soaked in milk or wine with honey. They can be scented with many ingredients.
It is a dessert that would make you and the guests at the celebration remember a specific moment of the year.
Fried milk
Fried milk is a typical Spanish dessert from the northern regions. It may be served with sugar and cinnamon. Basically it is cooked flour with sugar and milk, that is fried, therefore its name.
Bagels
Who hasn’t tried bagels? They exist since the Romans and are one of the most typical Spanish desserts that can be found easily in any part of the country.
In our desserts buffet we presented them with borrachuelos, inside a antique dish, contrasting textures and colours.
