If Hanibal Lector Had A Sweet Tooth…….




..he would have to look no further than an Hispanic desert menu.

Ladies and gentlemen, for your succulent delights, I offer you…..



BRAZO GITANO - GYPSY'S ARM


Long cream roll OR a swarthy severed limb heavily garnished with vendetta tattoos and gold bling. 




CABELLO DE ANGEL - ANGEL'S HAIR

A stringy pumpkin jam used in pies OR what a suspicious Joseph found on Mary’s lapel.
 

 
 
LENGUA DE GATO - CAT'S TONGUE

Small sweet biscuit OR why Garfield will never commit blasphemy in Taliban country again.





HUESOS DE SANTO - SAINT'S BONES

Small custard filled rissoles OR a garage sale at the Vatican.




PETS DE MONJA (Catalan) - NUN'S FARTS (not kidding)

Small powderpuff-shaped cookies OR the reason why convents don’t usually have elevators.  
 
 
 
DEDOS DE SEÑORA - LADY'S FINGERS
Long individual sponge cakes OR a dignified woman’s heartfelt apology to the Yakuza.
 
 
 
OREJONES - BIG EARS
Dried candied apricots OR something only ever eaten by Noddy but only once and he was just experimenting and was reeeaally drunk too so it doesn't...like..."mean" anything OK?
