About Bread, pan dulce, sweet yeast bread
Pan dulce, meaning sweet bread in Spanish, is the broad and beloved family of sweet baked goods that fills bakeries, or panaderias, across Mexico and Latin America. Enjoyed at breakfast and with afternoon coffee or hot chocolate, it comes in dozens of colorful shapes and styles, the most iconic being the concha, a soft, round roll topped with a crackly, seashell-patterned sugar crust. Other favorites include buttery orejas, flaky empanadas, cream-filled rolls, and anise-scented breads, often enriched with eggs, butter or lard, sugar, and dried fruit or nuts.
Pan dulce provides carbohydrates for energy along with some protein, though it is also a sweet treat with added sugar and fat. Deeply woven into daily life and celebrations, it is a centerpiece of gatherings and holidays like the Day of the Dead, with its special pan de muerto. It is best enjoyed fresh, ideally dunked in a warm drink. Choose freshly baked pieces, and store pan dulce in a paper bag or airtight container, eating it within a day or two while it is soft.
