"Alfeñique" is a traditional kind of candy used mainly for the "Day of the dead" in Mexico. This gallery shows an impressive variety of these sweet artcrafts and much more.

It's a nice small museum where you can learn about Mexico's day of the dead traditions such as alfeñique skulls, home made candies, sugar and chocolate skulls, among others. Besides that, you can learn how spanish and mexicans traditions mixed together into a new way of thinking. If you are in Toluca, do not hesitate to visit this place.
