The heart and soul of La Palma are made of almonds and honey. The culinary strong point is to be found in the desserts, 'marquesotes', almond cakes, 'bienmesabe', Principe Alberto, almond cheese and 'rapaduras' put a fine finishing touch to a good meal accompanied by a 'mojo rojo' sauce. And as for wines, Malmsey from Fuencaliente to wash down the food, or a snack of pork crackling, chick peas, grilled meat or fresh fish.
