1) Wonderful Authentic flaky pastry! 2) Bavarian Cream very tasty, rich and not too sugary;) 3) Will certainly come back to try other pastries;) Wandered into this Bakery in search of a Real Bavarian Cream donut... Was going to go to Safeway on 28th, as they have a somewhat-decent variation on true Bavarian Cream (or custard)... While I am a "white-bread" American; I figured this place might not have the chocolate donut variation- which Safeway & King Soopers bakeries make ((which by the way are NOT making true Bavarian Creme - b/c their custard is too sugary and does not have Real custard!)). read more

Panaderia Sabor A Mexico Bakery - a box of donuts - Bakeries Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Called three times to order a cake, got hung up on all three times. I'll be ordering elsewhere

I LOVE the tres leches here, so so tasty. Good prices and quality. Will definitely be coming back regularly.

Best Bakery Ever!!! En serio, los polvorones y galletitas están riquísimas! Muy buen servicio también!

Such a gem! I love this place so much :) They serve fresh, delicious Mexican baked goodies. As per usual, it's self-serve style: you're meant to grab a tray and a pair of tongs then select which individual treat catches your eye. The staff here has always been very helpful when it comes to offering suggestions or describing what something might taste like if you're looking to try something new. Definitely worth the trip for both those looking for something new or something nostalgic :) read more

The fresh smell of yeast rising in the oven immediately hit my olfactory receptors as I walked through the door and took hold of all the goodies lined up in a display on the right-side. New to Mexican pastries/baked goods I was handicapped due to the lack of signage (nothing in english, spanish, or spanglish to guide me) to indicate what each of the items were or what they may taste like. All I knew is that I wanted something to relish , to enjoy, and to savor. So, with the help of the owner/baker who guided me through the selection of what was sweet or what had some hidden filling inside I settled upon the following three choices: 1) Conchas - it appears like a bun; some come with a sugar coating and others are plain. The inside basically tasted like sweet bread. 2) Orejas - the English equivalent is 'palm leaves' - a crispy, sweet pastry shaped like a heart (this was the sweetest of the three items I chose). 3) Empanadas de Pina - a pastry shaped in a triangle with a pineapple filling; basically a pineapple turnover (this was the best of the three items I had). I like this place for presenting an alternative to the bakeries that are common in most grocery stores, for the unique and distinct items and flavors, and for being a 'mom and pop' local joint. I took off 1* for not having the items labelled and for not having little takeout baggies readily available to dispense my goods (you'll have to ask at the counter). But you know what, overall I liked this place and I'd recommend giving it a try if you're into trying something different and new. Oh, and did I mention they are really cheap - most baked items are 50-75 cents. Aside from the baked goods, they sell spices, dried chillies, spanish soda drinks, and tortillas. read more

See all

The Tres Leche cake a picked up was amazing! Everyone loved it! We will be back for more incredible desserts!

I wish we were able to give half stars, cause I would give another half to this place. I was in this plaza and a fresh bakery scent was wafting through the air. So much so that I felt blinded and overpowered, and was pleasantly following my nose into this panaderia. Sure, there are plenty of panaderias around. When I lived in NW Denver they were everywhere! But the scent emanating from this place was intoxicating! I entered entranced, and stood in awe as I glanced at the three amazing double glass door bakery cases. Tons of freshly baked treats of all shapes, sizes, and colors were staring back at me screaming-take me home!-while my clothes began to soak up the amazing fragrance in this panaderia. Walked around more of the store and noticed a man with a mixer baking in the back. I kept looking back while browsing, hoping someone would come out to help me. Were these beloved pastries free for the taking? Finally, I had to leave, realizing that no one cared enough about coming out to assist a customer. Oh so Sad, and smelling so sweet as the panaderia had perfumed my clothes, I returned reluctantly to my car where Blackberry was excited by my new scent. Hopefully one day I will return and be able to purchase some of these wonderfully smelling calorie packed treats. read more

Been coming here for many years, such a wonderful little shop tucked in a strip mall on 28th. The dulce de leche filled churros are the best (though they run out quickly). They are opening during the Covid pandemic (as of 4/6), though close at 4pm and have restrictions on the number of patrons in the shop. Get your sweets fix while staying home. read more

warning!! the lack of transparency is overwhelming , no price on the pastries/bread and when you get to the register they overpriced it for you and when you ask for their prices they get so defensive and made you feel like you are making a big deal. this time he said it was a $$& amount and when I handle him the money it add a couple bucks to the transaction. it happens before but I give them a second chance, no anymore, last time buying on that bakery. read more

Best Mexican bakery town! This place is very clean and put together! Food quality is wonderfully good!! Will definitely be making this our new go to bakery! read more

I have been coming by here the past several years and never have yelped about it. It is about time as this place is really fantastic! The cakes, breads and pastries are all so great and are done more in the mexico style so a bit drier than the pastries you are used to. I had many of these pastries growing up in NM so I really appreciate this style of pastry. They are all made from scratch in house and come in many different shapes, sizes and flavors! I really like the one that has creme in the middle and chocolate breading.. so so yummy. Give this place a try. You might just love it! read more

Great little Mexican Panaderia in Boulder. I was surprised to find this bakery in Boulder, which lacks diversity and culture. The Pan De Huevo is excellent, which I took home right away to eat as an afternoon Merienda. The place had so many pastries to choose from and I will be back to sample everything in the near future. read more

Absolutely love this place! Fantastic pan dulce. Always super friendly and they have great prices! A must go!

Sabor A Mexico is possibly Boulder's best option for morning pastries. Lacking any sort of tangible donut shop, the pastries at this panaderia are a fresh and delicious alternative to fried and glazed dough in the mornings. The selection alters a bit everyday, which keeps me coming back. Not every one of their pastries are absolute winners, but there is enough variety that you are bound to find several things that interest you. Not to mention their prices, which are incredibly reasonable. If ever you are struck with a hankering for a tasty confection on your morning commute, I highly recommend giving this place a shot. read more

The smell from the bakery reels you in if you're in the area. The tres leches is really really good. Definitely going back for more.

I moved here from San Antonio where the tres leches cake is around every corner at every place you could imagine. When I moved here, I searched for the best tres leches cake around. I found it here. The cake varies though, it seems, by day. The tres leches with the pecan on top is where it's at. By far the best. Ever. A previous reviewer noted not being greeted/helped upon arrival, but the bakery is self serve. There are tongs up front as well as trays. You use tongs to grab the pastries and put them on the tray and they will put your pastries in bags when you go to pay. Also, most of them do not speak English, so you if you have questions, use some of your awesome Spanish skills. :) read more

I recently discovered this little slice of heaven after living down the street for 4 years. If Google maps tries telling you this place is north of Iris, it is on drugs! This is located directly next to Agave restaurant just south of Boulder Gas on the corner of 28th and Valmont. Don't let this confusion stop you from going there, it is worth the search! Prices are very reasonable allowing for you to sample or share as many goodies as you wish! Marta was so welcoming and a pleasure to visit with as she explained what literally everything was to me. I really appreciated her taking the time and making suggestions for us! I can't wait to come back and try tres leches cake next time! read more

This place is a weekly pilgrimage for my teenage daughter and I. The breads, cakes, cookies and pastries are amazing. We have our favorites (the molasas pigs for me, the slightly sweet sugared buns for my daughter) but also enjoy trying new treats. Don't over-buy because they are really best eaten fresh the day they are purchased. Extra bonus is the ever changing selection of giant pinatas...every party is better with a pinata. read more

absolutely wonderful tres leches! and we got a whole cake ordered the same day? unheard of. thank you so much! it was the hit of our party!
