A Legacy of Love and Tradition

In 1998, Maria Paz Rodriguez embarked on a journey to share her passion for baking with the world. With a deep-rooted love for her family's time-honored recipes and a desire to preserve the rich cultural heritage of the Excelsior District in San Francisco, Pacita founded Pacita's Bakery.

From the very beginning, Pacita's Bakery has been a woman-owned and operated business, a testament to the unwavering spirit and determination of its founder. Pacita's family members, each with their own unique expertise in the art of hand-crafted pan dulce, have been an integral part of the bakery's success, ensuring that every pastry is a masterpiece of flavor and tradition.

As a heritage business, Pacita's Bakery has become a beloved institution in the Excelsior District, a place where the aroma of freshly baked goods and the warmth of community converge. Pacita's passion for her craft is evident in every bite, as she and her team meticulously craft each pastry with the utmost care and attention to detail.

As you step into the cozy confines of Pacita's Bakery, you'll be transported to a world where the past and present seamlessly intertwine, where the flavors of tradition and the spirit of innovation come together to create a truly unforgettable experience.
