Hello! I am Ruth, Canarian with a traveling soul. With training and experience in the tourism and digital marketing sector. In this blog I tell you all the tips you need to get to know the most authentic side of Gran Canaria on your own. I also share my travel guides to all the places in the world that I am visiting so that you can discover the destinations like a local and save time planning. In addition to traveling, I love gastronomy and sports. I run and hike in the mountains with my “dog-children” (Silver and Plata). In all these adventures my partner accompanies me, Jorge, which you will also see a lot on this blog.
We have been on this wonderful island for 35 years, with the best cheese we have ever tasted, an area with the best climate on the planet, kind people, unique landscapes, incredible recipes and a lot of well-being. But as far as sweets are concerned… ugh. We have some friends who every year at Christmas give us a very XNUMXs assortment of the things you put here in first place (oops) and… it is inedible, sugar and more sugar with no story. We always leave it as it came, to the point that we felt ashamed of it. Last year we “re-gifted” it to other friends, but their response was sorry, we couldn’t handle it. The truth is, except for some salvageable products in some specific places (the donut from the Tunte bakery, the rosquillas from Arinaga, the torrijas from a neighbour from Valsendero,…) the sweets are something like no. And look, people have tried them, but they all agree on the same thing. Each place has its virtues.
They have been left behind La Aldea de San Nicolás with the San Nicolás Bakery and its super incredible palm trees of different chocolates, homemade buns and cake. Also, a wide variety of sweets and its cafeteria.
