Q: What is Twelve Cake? 

A: It’s a cake we eat to celebrate the Damiá New Year. It’s a simple cake but we add twelve special ingredients to it for each month of the year. You can choose whichever twelve ingredients you like, but it’s a good idea that they’re delicious things! For example: hazelnuts, raisins, apple, apricot, chocolate, marzipan, jam, cherries, etc, etc. The twelve ingredients are a reminder of the twelve months of the year. When you add each ingredient to the bowl, you can make a wish for each month!
