MARBELLA. Restaurants. Traditional Confectionery

The opportunities that arrived in Marbella with its foreign visitors and settlers have tended to obscure original Marbella confectionery-making to the point where it has almost disappeared. But in its local festivals (and more so even than the great religious events at Easter and Christmas) you can still enjoy traditional tortas de aceite (olive-oil tartlets), los roscos de vino (wine and anis flavoured cakes), los borrachuelos (fried sugar and wine sweetmeats), las torrijas (egg/cinnamon tartlets) and many more.

And the almost obligatory winter-time filler, a breakfast of hot chocolate and the warm spiral donuts called churros.
