A few of the famous breads and pastries of La Casa del Pan

It would not be an overstatement to say that the bakery is the heartbeat of La Casa del Pan. As a matter of fact the  Casa del Pan Vegetarian Restaurant and Organic Cafe is a home-grown concept which began when Kippy started baking bread at home with the recipes she had learned from her husband Ron a long time ago. Kippy sold her delicious breads to friends, schools and at social events until her compadre Architect Octavio Barocio invited her to open a whole-grain bakery in the Ecological Park he was planing to open in Tlalpan, Mexico City, at the site of the recently-closed paper mill of Loreto and Peña Pobre. He recognized that it would be perfect for Kippy to have a store in the park and serve eco-friendly meals to park visitors.

That was how the first Casa del Pan opened in Mexico City in 1989. It began as a whole-grain bakery that served whole wheat breads, pastries and a special flaky pastry stuffed with cheese and organic vegetables, which is known as hojaldre (pronounced "oh-hahl-dray"). Kippy offered these with organic coffee, organic hot chocolate, selected teas and an assortment of delicious and nutritious fruit drinks. It was exactly what a park with health-conscious visitors were looking for in a city that has an abundance of eating houses, but very few who pay attention to the concept of "health food," without making it taste like punishment. La Casa del Pan´s whole wheat breads and pastries have become famous, and the sourdough is a special treat.

Each of the Casas del Pan up till today is serviced by an in-house whole-grain bakery whose products compliment the menu of each location...
