Tradition of the King Cake
• The Tortell de Reis is traditional in Catalonia on Epiphany Day (6th of January). We have a meal with our family.
• In the cake there are some figures and the bean. One of the figures is a King another a bean.
• The tradition tells: If you find the figure of the King, the paper crown is yours. If you find the bean, the next year you must pay the cake.
