Gastronomy & Flavors
Locas are one of Málaga's most beloved traditional pastries. Recognizable by their bright orange glaze and round shape, these sweet treats are made with puff pastry, a rich cream filling, and a colorful sugar icing on top. Originally created in Málaga in the mid-20th century, locas have become a nostalgic favorite across generations. Their playful name ("crazy ones") and eye-catching look make them popular in local pastry shops, especially for celebrations and family gatherings. To taste a loca is to enjoy a sweet bite of Málaga's quirky charm.
