Our receipt keeps the same from 1873, and it is a tradicional and artisan receipt. The ensaimada is a product that keeps remaining in Minorca, by the way is one of the favorite souvenirs for tourists. It is a typical bakery product, ingredients are so common: flour, sugar, eggs and lard.

The name of the ensaimada comes from the word “saïm“, it is how people in Mallorca says lard. Nowadays ensaimadas keep made as they used to many years ago, and we really think that ensaimadas should keep this essence of tradition.
