Calavera is Spanish for "skull" and, in the context of Mexico's Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead), refers to decorative or edible skulls (often made of sugar) representing departed souls. They are not macabre, but joyful, colorful symbols used to honor the dead, celebrate life, and decorate ofrendas.
