The Child in the Rosca

On the Day of the Kings, Mexican families and friends share a rosca de Reyes, a sweet bread with a small figure of the Christ child, the Niño Dios, hidden inside. Whoever finds the figure is expected to invite the others to tamales on February 2, Día de la Candelaria, Candlemas.
