Polvorón
A polvorón (From ''polvo'', the Spanish word for powder, or dust; Cebuano: ''polboron''; (タガログ語:pulburón)) is a type of heavy, soft and very crumbly Spanish shortbread made of flour, sugar, milk, and nuts. They are produced mostly in Andalusia, where there are about 70 factories in that are part of a syndicate that produces polvorones and mantecados.〔(Spanish mantecado: sweet treat beats economic downturn )〕 Under the name ''mantecados'', these sweets are a traditional preparation of other areas of the Iberian Peninsula as well.〔(Herrera del Duque, Extremadura - Gastronomía )〕
Polvorones are popular holiday delicacies in all Spain and its former colonies in Latin America and the Philippines. Traditionally, they were prepared from September to January but are now available all year round. Polvorones were brought to Spain by the Moors and there is thus a very possible Levantine origin, based on a similar sweet known as ''ghurayba''.〔Salloum, H. 2007. ''Classic Vegetarian Cooking from the Middle East and North Africa.'' Toronto: Interlink.〕 As this was introduced by the Arabs, during the Spanish Inquisition, it was later decreed by the officials of the Inquisition that polvorones were to be made using pork fat as a means of detecting secret Jews and Muslims within the Southern Spanish regions.
==Mantecado==
Mantecado is a name for a variety of Spanish shortbreads that includes the ''polvorón''. Often both names are synonymous, but not all ''mantecados'' are ''polvorones''. The name ''mantecado'' comes from ''manteca'', usually the fat of Iberian pig (''cerdo iberico''), with which they are made, while the name ''polvorón'' is based on the fact that these cakes crumble easily into a kind of dust in the hand or the mouth.
In Cuba, ''mantecado'' is an ice cream and in Spain it may be also the name given to a kind of sweet sherbet.〔(Helado mantecado )〕 In the Philippines, ''mantecado'' is a popular and traditional ice cream flavour, characterised as a mixture of vanilla and butter. It was served during the 29 September 1898 luncheon banquet that followed the Malolos Congress' ratification of the Philippine Declaration of Independence in June that year.
