Mexico
Although Lent is a time of abstinence, there's still room for a bit of dessert in Mexico. Capirotada is served at this time of year and the ingredients of this bread pudding are rich in religious symbolism. The bread represents the Body of Christ, the cinnamon sticks the wood of the cross, the cloves are the nails, and the syrup is the Blood of Christ.
