Mona de Pasqua
Spring on the Costa Brava is more than just sunshine, scenic coves, and charming villages. It is also the perfect time to discover one of Catalonia’s most beloved traditions: the Mona de Pasqua.
Celebrated on Easter Monday, this tradition brings families together in a uniquely local way. Godparents gift their godchildren a mona, a decorated cake that has evolved into a true work of chocolate artistry.
From playful designs to intricate chocolate sculptures, these cakes are as impressive as they are delicious. If you're planning a spring trip to the Costa Brava, don't miss the chance to take part in a tradition that locals have cherished for generations, and make sure to visit a local bakery before Easter Monday. Experiencing the mona is not just about tasting a dessert, it is about connecting with the culture of Catalunya in a meaningful and memorable way.
