The Story Behind the Dish
Natilla is the taste of a Colombian December. During the novena de aguinaldos — nine nights of prayers, carols and gatherings from 16 to 24 December — families share natilla and buñuelos with neighbours and friends.
The traditional recipe uses panela, unrefined cane sugar, which gives the custard its caramel colour and deep flavour.
⭐ Why It's Famous
It's inseparable from Christmas — the smell of natilla cooking means the holidays have arrived.
💡 Fun Fact
Making natilla traditionally requires stirring nonstop for ages with a long wooden spoon, a job often passed around the whole family.
