Mexican Sweets

A small plate holds a halved sweet bread roll dusted with sugar, showing its soft interior. Next to it, a larger plate displays more sugared rolls. In the background are brown decorative spheres and clay pottery, all set against a dark surface.

Authentic Day of the Dead Bread (pan de muerto)

Slices of candied pumpkin, or Calabaza en Tacha, are arranged on an oval plate, with one piece on a round tan plate. A gold spoon rests nearby, while cinnamon sticks and star anise hint at the warm spices in this classic Mexican dessert.
