Dia de Reyes

Día de Reyes

Uruguayan children leave their shoes under the bed or by the window, and in the morning find them filled with small toys and sweets. The Rosca de Reyes : a crown-shaped sweet bread with candied fruit and a hidden baby Jesus figurine : appears in every bakery. Whoever finds the figurine in their slice hosts the next gathering. They always forget until someone reminds them.
