Can I get gold coins by eating cake today? !

January 6th is Three Kings Day in Belgium. I have read this story in the bible before, and it turned out to be such a custom here~


Taken by myself at the bakery on the street

Today is January 6th, the Three Kings Day in Belgium. When shopping at an Asian supermarket at night, passing a bakery on the way, a random glance saw crowns placed on top of delicious meringue cakes.

This day commemorates the three kings (astrologers) who visited Jesus and gave gifts at his birth.

It is said that the locals will put a small ornament in the cake and taste it together when their relatives are reunited. Whoever gets the slice with the trinket gets the crown and wins the power to be king or queen for the day

Someone's sharing I saw someone's introduction on fb

Someone detailed on the website

People who live in Brussels can go to this shop to buy a lotto cake on the day @

"They listened to the king and went away. Behold, the star from which they had seen it appeared, and led the way before them, as far as the child, and stopped there. 』Matthew 2 9

"When they saw the star, they rejoiced greatly. 』Matt. 2 10

"When he entered the house, and saw the child and his mother Mary, he fell down and worshipped him, opened the treasure box, and offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. 』Matthew 2 11

Tomorrow everyone has the opportunity to come to Belgium, you can come and eat gold coins@@

In my own words, I want to experience and see how the locals live on this day. If I were a child, I would be very happy when I got the crown~
