115 grams is how many cups?

That depends on what you are measuring. A cup is a volume measure - i.e it's a "how much can I fit in this space" measure, whereas a gram is a weight measure and does not take into account how much room (i.e mass) the thing being weighed takes up. For example, 113 grams of light polystyrene packaging beads will take up far more volume than 113 grams of lead cookery weights will. This means that the 113 grams cannot be converted into cups without knowing what substance you are weighing/measuring.

What is the difference between baking and regular chocolate?

None specifically. The kind of chocolate used for baking should be high in cocoa solids - percentages are usually listed on both baking and eating chocolate. As long as you buy an eating chocolate high in cocoa solids (65% or higher), it will be fine to bake with (assuming no weird "fondant centres" or "caramel chunks" etc...). I think 'baking chocolate' is primarily sold to people who do not bake often, so do not know what to look for when choosing a chocolate variety with which to bake.

What is baked inside the rosca?

If the question refers to "El Dia de los Reyes" (Day of the Kings) which is celebrated in Spain, Mexico, Philippines, Cuba, Puerto Rico and some other Latin American countries; and the rite of the "Rosca de Reyes" which is done in the afternoon of that day, then the answer is that a small doll representing the baby Jesus is baked inside the rosca.

Also, in Spain, it used to be that gold coins were often hidden inside the roscas but now little trinkets or toys are sometimes hidden. Sometimes a fava bean is baked inside.

As far as general fillings for rosca, there can be many, such as candied fruit and almonds, cream, jelly, etc.
