I love the Gingerbread pigs that you get in the panaderias. Is there some kind of folk tale involved?!


Question: I love the Gingerbread pigs that you get in the panaderias!. Is there some kind of folk tale involved!?
You know, like a fairy tale or a famous baker!?

Yeah, I know it's gonna take some research!. But I always pick a best answer, and I'm usually prompt!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
The Mexicans have named their baked goods as whimsically as the Italians have named their pastas!. Conchas (shells), orejas (ears), cuernos (horns), and cochinitos (little pigs) are only a few favorites!. Care to try something different!? How about bigotes (moustaches), trenzas (braids), or corbatas (neckties!.) For the more adventurous, there are the somewhat aggressively named picones (jabbers) and piedras (stones!.)Www@FoodAQ@Com
