The month of June has barely begun and everyone is already looking forward to the festivity that symbolizes the beginning of summer: Sant Joan. That is why the pastry shops and bakeries have already turned on the oven to start preparing the cakes that will animate the verbena tables. The classic elaboration continues to conquer everyone, although the chocolate ones, the most creative ones or those with cream and pine nuts are also highly acclaimed.
The Best Coca of Sant Joan contest has just announced the winners of this year’s edition, which has been held in the Old Factory of Estrella Damm, and has welcomed more than 250 cocas that have competed to become the winners.
The pastry shops had to embroider the elaboration of this typical Catalan sweet that is devoured above all on the night of June 23 in one of the different categories established by the contest: traditional coca, cream and pine nut coca, chocolate coca, llardons coca or creative coke
