Rosca de Reyes: where to enjoy this delicious tradition

Yeccan

In collaboration with IDDI's Bakery, Yeccan presents its version of Rosca de Reyes: a combination of classic dough and dough from Hecha en el Invierno (our Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Stout) rolled up, with amarena cherries and almond marzipan.

Malta fever

If you want to celebrate Three Kings' Day but don't want to be stuck at home, we recommend visiting Fiebre de Malta. In collaboration with Fougasse, this venue has organized a pairing of three craft beers for this Saturday, January 4th. Plus, each figurine will contain an unexpected surprise.

Wine Bar del CMB

To kick off the 2025 events, the CMB Wine Bar will celebrate this tradition next Monday, January 6th, with a tasting of four King's Rocks, crafted at the Suavecito, Suiza, Cuina, and Rosetta bakeries. Of course, these will be accompanied by exquisite wine pairings from four labels sourced from Italy, Mexico, France, and Scotland.

Lard

Whether enjoyed individually or shared, Lardo's Rosca de Reyes is unique, made with almond marzipan, a vanilla crust, and candied fruit. They also take the traditional "little figure" to the next level, as you'll find a complete miniature ceramic nativity scene inside.

International Pharmacy

This place is known for its cozy atmosphere and cuisine. For this weekend, they've prepared their own version of Rosca de Reyes (Three Kings' Bread) with almond, vanilla, and raspberry, available in individual portions as well as medium and large sizes.

Macorina

The Rosca de Reyes in Macorina is taken to another level by being made with scones, with options to choose from such as almond, plain, Speculoos, cinnamon, or apple crumble. Undoubtedly the ideal choice if you want to include the little ones in this tradition.

Maria Fortunata

Here you can choose the traditional or filled version, although we recommend the latter as it preserves the essence of this place: filled with whipped cream made with two types of cheese with a touch of amaretto, a smash of fresh raspberries, and a topping of hazelnuts, crystallized orange, and the classic doughnut crust.

Swiss Pastry Shop

Definitely a Mexico City classic. Founded by the Catalan Jaime Bassegoda, this pastry shop is a favorite of many, especially for its unparalleled homemade cream, which you can enjoy in the filling of their ever-popular Rosca de Reyes (Three Kings' Bread).

Nicos

If you fancy a slice that adheres to the traditional preparation of this succulent bread, we recommend the one prepared at Nicos, made with soft dough, delicious aromas of orange blossom and orange, and the classic decoration of candied fruit.

Mexican Pastries

Located in the Industrial neighborhood in the north of the city, this bakery is small but offers great treats, most notably its guava roll. For the Rosca de Reyes (Three Kings' Bread), Bollería Mexicana uses the filling from this roll, making it simply delicious.

Happy Three Kings Day!
