Making Of Calaveritas De Azúcar On The Eve Of The Day Of The Dead In Mexico
View of sugar skulls inside a home in Xochimilco in Mexico City on the eve of the Day of the Dead in Mexico. The sugar skulls are made from alfeñique, a confection originating in Spain, whose technique for handling it was most likely adopted from the Arab tradition. Alfeñique is created from a mixture of cane sugar with egg whites, water and lemon juice. (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
