La Mona
The first Monday after the Sunday's Easter it's typical in Catalunya to eat mona and because of that it's called El Dia de la Mona (Mona's Day).
Mones are a cake that godparents give as a present to their godsons. They can be of butter, chocolate, fruit,... or a mix of them. They can also have a figurine of chocolate (each year there are different figurines that are in fashion depending on what happened that year -like characters of cartoons or movies, football players, etc-) or the typical chocolate egg.
This one was given to us thanks to a couple of good friends of my grandparents and is all home-made! It was delicious! <3
