Buñuelos, Mexico

这些清淡、酥脆、香甜的圆盘是墨西哥人在节日期间喜爱的美食，是西班牙殖民者留下的遗产。Bunuelos是用炸面团做的，然后撒上用粉条糖浆(甘蔗糖制成的)浸泡的糖。这道菜的配方因州而异。例如，在塔巴斯科(Tabasco)，人们会做和原汁类似的版本，而在韦拉克鲁斯(Veracruz)，它们有不同的口味，比如甘薯、南瓜或杏仁，还有一些是用猪油油炸并撒上糖的小球或甜甜圈。在其他拉丁美洲国家，如哥伦比亚，布努埃洛斯是球形的，里面塞满了奶酪。品尝地点:墨西哥各地的街边小吃摊在圣诞节期间都有卖。

Kahk

在埃及制作kahk(饼干的意思)样古老。在古时候，kahk咖啡常被塞满枣和无花果。如今，类似酥饼的饼干是用各种馅料做的——枣、开心果、核桃——或者用肉桂、丁香和生姜调味，有时也用茴香籽、八角籽和mahlab(一种酸樱桃核的种子)。

In Egypt, making kahk (which means cookies) is as ancient as the phas. In ancient times kahk were often stufwith dates and figs.  Today the shortbread-like cookies, are made with a variety of stuffings - dates, pistachios, walnuts - or spiced with cinnamon, cloves and ginger, and sometimes also fennel seeds, anise seeds and mahlab (the seed of a sour cheery pit).

Where to try: Egypt

Malva Pudding

Malva pudding(在南非荷兰语中称为malvapoeding)是一种味道浓郁又香甜的蛋糕。它的颓废意味着它只能在特殊场合使用。它是用杏酱和一点麦芽或香醋准备的。一些成分的变化包括姜，白兰地，和/或阿马拉拉利口酒。烤好后，在蛋糕还热的时候淋上奶油酱。这是关键，因为蛋糕在冷却时吸收了酱汁，变成了粘稠的布丁。

去哪里试试:开普敦

Malva pudding, or malvapoeding in Afrikaans, is a rich and swcake. Its decadence means it's reserved for special occasions. It's prepared with apricot jam and a little malt or balsamic vinegar. Some ingredient variations include ginger, brandy, and/or Amarula liqueur. After baking, the cake is then drenched with a creamy sauce while still hot. This is key, as the cake absorbs the sauce while cooling, turning into a sticky pudding.

Where to try it: Cape Town

Stollen

这种传统的蛋糕状水果和坚果面包是名副其实的德国标志，外面裹着糖霜。面包师使用黄油和其他丰富的原料，如葡萄干、杏仁蛋白软糖和蜜饯橘子皮——这些食物在降临节期间是被禁止的——来制作他们的圣诞面包。

去哪里品尝:德国的啤酒节

A veritable German icon, this traditional cake-like fruit and nut bread is coated in icing sugar. Bakers use butter and other rich ingredients like raisins, marzipan, and candied orange peel — foods that were forbidden during Advent — to make their Christmas bread.

Where to try it: Stollenfest in Germany

Beigli

这种甜腻的卷状糕点内夹着浓郁的罂粟籽或核桃，是匈牙利的圣诞必备美食。贝格里是一个日耳曼意第绪语单词，意为马蹄铁或“弯曲”。贝格里可以追溯到古老的民间传统，罂粟籽和核桃都有其象征意义:核桃提供抵御咒语或诅咒的保护，而罂粟籽，由奥斯曼人进口，意味着繁荣。

去哪里品尝:Edesem Cukraszda

This sugary, roll-shaped pastry with a dense, swirly filling of poppy s or walnuts is a Christmas fixture in Hungary. A German-Yiddish word meaning horseshoe or "to bend", beigli dates back to old folk traditions in which both poppy seeds and walnuts had their symbolic significance: walnut provided protection against magic spells or curses, while poppy seeds, imported by the Ottomans, meant prosperity.
