For the people of Priego de Córdoba, "palillos de leche", holy sticks or Easter sticks are more than a traditional sweet of these holidays, they are part of our culture, of our roots and we cannot conceive these dates without these sweets. From the aroma they give off when frying them, the kind of ritual or ceremony that is created around their elaboration in the houses, the coming and going of children and adults to the pan or can where they are stored, the ascent to the ordeal with the hornazo Good Friday and a few sticks, the memories they bring us, all that makes them more than just a traditional candy.
