Hello! Today I will not talk about a destination to visit in Catalonia. Yesterday was the Easter Day, so I will talk about a Catalan tradition for these days. Traditionally in Catalonia on Easter Day, we eat a cake called La Mona de Pasqua. Basically consists of a cake with apricot jam and decorated with almonds, chocolate glaze and chocolate eggs. Sometimes the cake can be accompanied with a chocolate figure.
The tradition says that the godparents have to give to their godchildren La Mona de Pasqua.
Here you have some pictures of this delicious dessert!

Unfortunately, my godfather couldn’t give me La Mona de Pasqua this yearL. However, I tried, with two other Catalan friends, to make the cake ourselves. Here you can see the result. Not bad, isn’t it?
