Recorrido y Vistas en el Castillo de Utrera

Tasting of Traditional Mostachón in Local Workshops
The mostachón is the undisputed pastry jewel of Utrera, a flat sponge cake baked by hand on parchment paper based on flour, egg, sugar, and cinnamon. Iconic establishments such as the Confitería Diego Vázquez preserve centuries-old recipes that are part of the city's gastronomic identity.
Ruta de Naturaleza en el Complejo Endorreico de Utrera
