MEXI-KANSAS
Topeka was founded in part by Mexican immigrants who came to build the railroads in the late 1800’s. To start the day, try the Oakland Bakery! Nestled in a small building off Seward Avenue, the bakery offers authentic Mexican baked goods, along with some pastry favorites like homemade muffins and donuts. You can find a variety of pan dulce, such as conchas, orejas, empanadas de fruta, polverones and more. Get there early to snag your favorites, or get a quote on their website for larger orders. If you’re in the mood for something quick on the go but still want to impress the camera, or your friends, look no further than Casserolle. With elote that overflows each cup and delightful mangonadas, a frozen mango treat featuring chamoy sauce and tajin. The options are endless.
