The database behind this site was the loving creation of Suzy Oakes, who sadly passed away on 31st July 2011.

She will be greatly missed.


piuleta y tronador

Language: Spanish

Description: This name refers to the male and female parts, which modesty forbids that I shall translate. These pastries, shaped appropriately, are traditionally given by men to their loves, wrapped in a knotted handkerchief or mocador, with marzipan fruits on the Día de los Enamorados, which falls on the same day as the mighty Valencian festival of the Día de la Comunidad. The 9th October is a good day to be in town.
