Join us at the Education Center just in time for Dia de los Reyes to make your own Rosca! Using our freshly milled stone-ground flour, we will make, shape, and decorate a personal size Rosca that you will be able to take and be able to share at your Rosca party, or just enjoy yourself or with a few friends! Come learn the history and tradition of this Mexican sweet bread that our Education Director, Frida, grew up with. Under her guidance, Frida will guide you through all the steps and components in this hands-on class. We will even have "Baby Jesus" figurines for you to put in your Rosca!
Dia de los Reyes Magos celebrates the arrival of the Three Wise Men visiting Baby Jesus on January 6th. In Mexico, Frida grew up celebrating with her family and their close friends every year. They would gather around the rosca the night of January 5th and cut into it in anticipation of who would get a baby! That same night, the kids would set out three different sized bowls of water for the animals that the Three Kings rode on during their journey. As they slept, the Three Kings would visit them and leave a small gift as their animals drank the water left for them to quench their thirst from their long journey. On January 6th the kids woke up and were in marvel of the water the animals had drank and were thankful for their gift!
Frida will be making a big party size Rosca for the class to snack on, and if you get a figurine in your slice, there will be a special surprise from the Education Center for you! Grab a friend or family member and come make and learn about la Rosca and Dia de los Reyes, a beautiful and fun tradition that centers around family!
About your instructor:
Frida, our head education director, has spent the past 8 years refining and improving her techniques, skills, and recipes from her beginnings as a home baker to her professional experience as the former bread-head of Sour Duck, all while using Barton Springs Mill flour throughout the whole journey. She went from avoiding cinnamon rolls to having constant cravings and needs for them, being only satisfied by these self-indulgent creations. Come find out why and how to make them for yourself!
BYOB is fine by us for participants 21+ 🍻
