El roscón de reyes

Cada día un poco de práctica (Every day a little practice):

El seis de enero es el día de comer el roscón de reyes. Es similar a la rosca del rey, excepto que los reyes son los tres reyes magos y no el rey del carnaval, se celebra el seis de enero y no el martes de carnaval, y la receta del roscón de reyes tiene muchas frutas confitadas. Ambas roscas, que son pan y no pastel, tienen nueces y una figurita escondida adentro.

January 6th is the day to eat the kings' cake. It is similar to the king's cake, except that in this case the kings are the three wise men and not the king of Carnival, it is celebrated on January 6th and not on Mardi Gras, and the kings' cake recipe has lots of candied dried fruits. Both rolls, which are bread and not cake, have nuts and a small figurine hidden inside.
