These sugar figures are called misterios (mysteries)

Each mystery has an image that symbolizes a wish or a warning. The mysteries arrive randomly in each preparation and the reading of them is essential to understand what the cosmos wants to communicate to us. The devils represent the T´iu or Uncle, God of the Mineral, to whom the miners pay tribute and venerate inside the mine.
