Mexican Bread is Fashionable: Xochico makes Pan Dulce Accessories & Home Décor

I can’t believe in all the time I’ve been writing this blog, I’ve never done a post on California-based company Xochico, makers of pan dulce accessories and home furnishings. They even make pan dulce fuzzies (a Mexican bread play on fuzzy dice), which I bought at last year’s Taste of East LA and hang with pride from my rear view mirror.

Almost too good to be true, right?

Now 6 months pregnant, I’m currently working on a nursery, and I think the concha cushions pictured above are a must have. I mean, look at them! They come in chocolate, strawberry and vanilla, and I’m going to have trouble deciding.

Xochico also sells coin purses (including one in the likeness of a niño envuelto, the coconut jelly roll), key chains and even a churro shaped makeup bag. They’re kind of the perfect symbol of LA pride—and so much more practical than a Dodger tattoo.
