La Especial Bakery es de esos lugares que se sienten desde que entras. Este pan está delicioso como…read moreno se dan una idea. Súper suavecitos y con un sabor que me recuerda al pan de telera que uno compra en México. Cada mordida sabe a casa y a tradición bien hecha. Siempre que vengo al valle paso por aquí. Vale la pena llegar tempranito porque el pan sale calientito y se acaba rápido. Eso ya dice todo. La familia que atiende es muy linda y se nota que le ponen corazón a su negocio y a la comunidad. Es una panadería que realmente es parte del alma del barrio. Me encanta llegar y comprar pan para llevar. Las conchas son lo mejor sin duda. Pero mi consejo es probar poquito de todo. Las empanadas están bien ricas y las galletitas también. Todo tiene ese sabor auténtico que no se imita. Este lugar sabe a puro México. Es tradición es cariño y es comunidad en cada bolsa de pan. Si pasan por el valle no se lo pierdan.

I've been going to this place since I was a little girl and now that I'm not local to the valley, I…read morealways try to make a stop here when I visit. Now, trying pan dulce from basically everywhere (Nevada, California, North Texas, The RGV) I'm able to honestly say that this place is my favorite. Also has the best prices. There really is no marketing or signage directing you to them, but the building is next to an antique shop. Closed Mondays My favorite pastries are the conchas, pigs, pink and yellow cookies, rainbow cookies, pink donuts, and the Sweet potato empanadas are amazing. Okay so basically everything haha! Pastries are usually 3 or 4 /$1

Several months ago my sister who is very particular when it comes to ordering special occasion…read morecakes ordered her daughters 16th "Candy Land " themed birthday cake with Esperanza. Knowing how meticulous my sister is I was holding my breath hoping Esperanza Cake Shop would come through. Well they did 100% . Not only was the cake gorgeous it was delicious. There were many compliments on the cake that night. Needless to say since then I have gone to Esperanzas several times ( as a matter of fact past 3 weeks) and always super satisfied & happy with the outcome. The staff as well as Esperanza are very kind & have the patience to listen to every detail you are wanting & make what you envision in your cake happen.. The taste of the cakes that I have had , have always been moist & tasty that buttercream frosting is super tasty The Mandarin filling is a must & I just recently ordered their pan de polvo & was a big hit at my last gathering...so several thumbs up to Esperanza & her staff!!

This is a business we had heard of in Reynosa and they have now moved their bakery to the U.S. The bread is sold by the pound. It's around $5 and change for the pound. Now, be careful...it adds up quickly. Their main attraction is their "conchas." They are baked fresh all day and both times we've visited, they are nice and warm. They go fast so hurry... The place is very nice. Most bakeries we visit are old, dirty, run down, outdated, etc. But not this one. Loved the charm and decor which makes the visit more appealing. Last but not least, their taste is great! That's the main reason why we came back for a second time. The taste makes up for the above normal prices. Give them a try when you're in the San Juan area. I think you'll love Paris Bakery.

I asked for half with cajeta and half with chocolate syrup and of course some pecans. Man it's my new favorite hands down! For only $34.99 you can't beat it! I need to try the rest of their desserts! You must try them!
