To think I have been here two months and never made my way down c/ Cuesta del Rosario. And today,…read moreon a chilly late November afternoon, just as I was feeling the late autumn blues, I spotted Ofelia. Now, if you have read my reviews, you know that there is one Sevillan bakery that has claimed my heart: Dulce Regina. But Ofelia is a very, very close second. When my husband asked me how to compare the two cookies, I said this: Ofelia is a more sophisticated cookie, slightly more intellectual, more complex in its taste. It's a New York City cookie. It's stylish, thin, small, compact. It comes in a lovely tiny plastic bag wrapped with a bow. It's not a comfort cookie, not an after-school cookie, not a fresh-out-of-the-oven-chips-still-runny like Dulce Regina which is just decadent and big and buttery. So, the truth is, you should try both cookies and savor their differences and remember how lucky Sevilla is to have two cookie spots that are this good.
Extra points to Ofelia for general cuteness - what a lovely, lovely little spot!
