2. History of Churros • The name ‘churro came from the “Churro Sheep of Spain”- a name of a breed of sheep • Fried bread was a popular choice, which later became fried bread sprinkled with sugar. • Shepherds’ fried bread became star shaped, which allowed it to be fully cooked yet still soft on the inside, • To this day, some areas of Spain regularly serve their churros sprinkled with sugar.

3. Churros Con Chocolate • While coffee is an essential part of the Spanish way of life, the best companion for churros has to be Spanish hot chocolate, often described as liquid gold. • In Spain hot chocolate is taken very seriously, unlike us.
