My routine as soon as I get to Mexico: Pick up pan dulce y a correrle para apapachar a mi Abuelita. 🥹 Pan dulce really is joy in its simplest form. Many of my favorite memories as a kid include pan dulce. Splitting a marranito con mi Abuelito, weekends spent with family, sitting around the table, dunking whatever was left into my chocolatito caliente, listening to my tias chismear about people I’ll never meet. It’s the kind of sweetness that isn’t just about taste, it’s about tradition, warmth, and belonging. And what makes it even more beautiful? Every piece tells a story. A story of Mexican creativity and craftsmanship, of bakers waking up before the sun to make sure the shelves are full. A story of generations passing down recipes, of hands shaping dough with care, of laughter and love baked into every bite. Pan dulce isn’t just a treat, it’s a connection to where we come from and who we are. Whether you grew up eating it every Sunday or are just now discovering its magic, one thing is certain: there’s always room for pan dulce.
