Bolo Rei (The King’s Cake) is a must-have in any Portuguese Christmas, I personally not a fan of the candied fruit, but everyone in my family loves it. This year I decided to bake our own. This recipe is from a very well-known Portuguese’s cook, she is known as the Portuguese Julia Child, Maria de Lourdes Modesto.
