The tradition has been embraced by Mexico for decades and it is believed that explorer Marco Polo brought them back to Italy from China in the early 14th century. The Chinese filled their eggs with perfume and scented powder. From Italy, the egg idea traveled to Austria, France and Spain.

It’s believed the cascarón was brought to Mexico in the 1860s by Carlota, the wife of Emperor Maximilian I.  From there, the decorated eggshells traveled north to the American Southwest (New Mexico, Texas, Arizona, and California). The making and the breaking of the cascarones is associated with the carnaval that precedes Lent in Mexico.

How about a Cascarones party here at Montezuma’s??  Hurra!!!!

(hmmmm … I bags not cleaning up afterwards)

STAFF DEVELOPMENT DAY
Last Sunday our doors were closed for our staff development day in Brisbane. We met the delightful Alastair McLeod, had a personal tour of his amazing kitchen and a spectacular lunch at Brett’s Wharf, followed by a spot of shopping, cocktails & mocktails at the Emporium Bar and dinner at the Mecca Bah Turkish Restaurant. We’re not too sure how we managed to fit in all the lovely food but we were all definitely well developed by the end of the day!
