Cooking Workshop in Huamantla

We'll meet up at the selected time at the hotel Las Candelas to go to an artisan workshop where muéganos, a traditional Mexican pastry, is made in Huamantla.

These small honey-coated delicacies have their origins in the Arab culture, merging with Spanish cuisine during the colonization of the Americas, when the conquistadors introduced them to Mexican populations.

In this workshop, participants will learn the history of this traditional sweet and attend a class to see first-hand how it's made. Afterwards, you'll have the opportunity to cook your own muéganos. In 2020, the muéganos of Huamantla were declared Cultural and Gastronomic Heritage of the state of Tlaxcala.

At the end, we'll taste the muéganos prepared during the workshop. After an hour and a half, we'll wrap up the activity, concluding with a delicious taste.
