From The Foods and Wines of Spain by Penelope Casas:
Canelones came to Spain by way of Barcelona when, in the sixteenth century, Italy was ruled by the Spanish Crown and communication between the two countries was close. Although other types of pasta are uncommon in Spain, canelones are found everywhere. The dish is now considered quite Spanish and should properly be a part of any Spanish cookbook.

From Wikipedia:
Cannelloni (pronounced [kannelˈloːni]; Italian for "large reeds") are a cylindrical type of lasagna, possibly one of the oldest types of pasta.
Cannelloni are generally served baked with a filling and covered by a sauce in Italian cuisine. Popular stuffings include spinach and ricotta or minced beef. The shells are then typically covered with tomato sauce.

Cannelloni are generally served baked with a filling and covered by a sauce in Italian cuisine. Popular stuffings include spinach and ricotta or minced beef. The shells are then typically covered with tomato sauce.
Cannelloni are also a typical dish of the Catalan cuisine, where they are called canelons and traditionally consumed on Saint Stephen's Day, also called the Feast of Saint Stephen, a Christian saint's day to commemorate Saint Stephen, the first Christian martyr or protomartyr. It is an official public holiday in Catalonia as well as many other European countries.
Early references to macheroni ripieni (stuffed pasta) can be traced back to 1770; but the word cannelloni seems to have appeared at the turn of the 20th century. Manicotti are the American version of cannelloni, though the term may often refer to the actual baked dish.
The original difference may be that cannelloni consisted of pasta
sheets wrapped around the filling, and manicotti was machine-extruded
cylinders filled from one end.
Just in passing, there are some great bands and songs ranging from traditional to garage to house music by the name of or referring in some way to canelones. In particular there is a terrific hip hop song, Canelones, by Flowtime, a group from Barcelona, who have a video that is a lot of fun to watch; the lyrics (link below) speak of the ingredients and the making of canelones by the mother of the singer . . .
. . . however, the visuals say something completely different with a very wide range of references (link below).
And the Capitol of Uruguay is Canelones, the name derived from a species of cinnamon, which is called "canelón", growing along the banks of a river. It is about 50 kilometres (31 mi) North of Montevideo.

"Canelones pa' comer
Con queso y bechamel"
