To share my culture and celebrate with my team, I’ve brought Rosca to work in the past. However, the next tamalada is held on the 2nd of February which is el Dia de la Candelaria. Traditionally, the Rosca is cut on the 6th of January, because that is el Dia de los Reyes Magos. I allowed my daughter to cut and she got a little monito! Typically, the kids are not allowed to cut it since they cannot contribute to the party, but we allow them on the parents’ behalf. One of my favorite memories is when I hosted and my daughter wanted to cut the Rosca. In the Latino community, Da de Los Reyes, also known as Three Kings' Day or Epiphany, is celebrated on January 6 to honor the Three Wise Men Los Tres Reyes Magos who brought gifts to.

I loved getting champurrado!Īfter we feast on tamales and dinner, we get ready to cut the Rosca. We gather around 3:00-5:00 PM and have traditional Mexican drinks like champurrado, atolé, cafe de olla con chocolate all of which bring up memories of being a little girl in Mexico, going to my mom’s family’s house to cut her piece and getting a little monito. The fruit on the Rosca symbolizes the jewels on the King’s crown and of course, the monitos are the representation of Jesus in the womb or hidden in the manger the night of his birth. The Rosca is the representation of La Corona (the crown) of the Reyes Magos ( wise men) that went looking for Jesus. This bread has 3-5 monitos (little dolls) on the inside. On this day, we buy a huge loaf of bread, in the shape of an oval covered with fruit and sugar. As we got older, my sister and I hosted the Rosca de Reyes ( Three Kings’ Bread) celebration. Growing up, my family celebrated el Día de los Reyes Magos by gathering at the house of one of the tías. This has been a tradition in my family as far back as I remember.
