this wreath recipe (and even the look of it) is almost identical to what is a traditional portuguese christmas cake, that goes by the name of "bolo rei" (king cake) filled with dryed and sugar coated fruits or "bolo rainha" (queen cake) when the filling is done with a variety of nuts...but we add an bonus "ingredient" when we braid the dough: a broad bean and a favour (traditionally a silver piece) :) ; those who find the bean have to buy or cook a new cake, those who find the favour are granted with good fortune for the rest of the season!

p.s. - check the look of the cake in my blog

traditionally, in Portugal we eat codfish, cooked in a very simple fashion...just boiled with potatoes, and cabbage! some people are innovating and adding other ingredients and using other ways to cook, but tradition is still strong, and in my house we eat, around midnight (another tradition), just codfish, potatoes and cabbage...merry christmas or us we say around here, BOAS FESTAS
