Concha (Spanish, 'shell'), plural conchas, is a traditional Mexican sweet bread roll (pan dulce) with similar consistency to a brioche.[1] Conchas get their name from their round shape and their striped, seashell-like appearance. A concha consists of two parts, a sweetened bread roll, and a crunchy topping (composed of flour, butter, and sugar);[2] With the most common crunchy topping flavors being chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry.[3] Conchas are commonly found throughout Mexico (and its diaspora) in panaderias. They can now also be found in grocery stores and bakeries across the United States.[4]
