Pan de Dulce



As much of my love of Mexico and Puebla revolves around food, I will have to be very careful not to put on too much weight while I am here. This task is made all the more difficult though due to pan de dulce (sweet bread or pastries) which are prolific in Mexico. Every home has a pan de dulce shop within walking distance and whenever you wander through the town you pass at least two or three of them.

They can be eaten anytime, but typically as comida (or lunch) is eaten late by Australian terms at about 3pm, cena (or dinner) is also eaten late. Also as comida is a large meal which typically consists of 3 courses, cena is smaller and is often a hot sweet drink like hot chocolate or avena (like a porridge drink) and pan de dulce.

Pan de dulce comes in all shapes and sizes and they are all good. Check out the selection in this shop.
