The tradition of polvorones in Spain
The origin of the Spanish polvorón dates back to the 16th century, in southern Spain, especially in Estepa and Antequera. Its name comes from the "powdery" appearance it acquires when dusted with icing sugar. Since then, these sweets have become a symbol of Christmas celebrations and spread throughout the country.
Today, Spanish mantecados and polvorones are still made with simple ingredients—flour, butter, sugar, and almonds—but their preparation requires patience and experience. Each brand adds its own unique touch, keeping alive a tradition that is part of Spain´s culinary heritage.
