Rosca de Reyes is a special bread with fruit and sugar that comes in the shape of a crown. Inside the cake, a baby Jesus doll is hidden, whoever finds it is believed to receive good luck -- but it also signs you up to throw a party.
Roscas come in a variety of sizes, one of the biggest, if not largest Roscas in North Texas was made in Arlington, stretching across two tables ready to be enjoyed by many.
