Olvera Street has always been a special place for me. El Pueblo de Los Ángeles, the birthplace of this city, is a place where culture and community are still alive.
Yesterday we were invited to be part of the Blessing of the Animals and we brought marranitos, the little piggies, which are showcased in Chapter 9 of The Mexican Bakery. Fitting for the occasion 🐖 in Veracruz they are known as cochinitos de piloncillo.
We had the opportunity to meet Ballet Bravo, directed by the talented Jorge Rivas. Their group was dressed in traditional Jarocho from Veracruz, the same region these cookies come from.
A special thank you to the Olvera Street vendors and the Los Angeles community for welcoming us and giving us the opportunity to showcase and teach culture through bread.
Days like this remind me why I love what I do.

It was such a beautiful sunny Saturday, and we loved seeing so many families, friends, and beloved furry companions come together for this special tradition. The turnout was truly incredible, and it was heartwarming to celebrate the day with our community.
Thank you for making this event so memorable, we’re so grateful to everyone who joined us and shared in the joy, love, and blessing of our animal friends.
