¡Bienvenidos a la Panadería! Welcome to the Mexican Bakery! The fresh pan dulce in that display case looks delicious! Who will take home the best combination of pastries from the panadería?

Take turns filling up trays with combinations of sweet bread, one or two cards at a time. When a tray looks too delicious to pass up, take it! You must decide whether to take a tray or push your luck by holding off and adding more cards to the trays on the table. Take the tray that will give you the best scoring combinations to earn the most points. But not so fast: The last player to take a tray earns a cup of coffee - and a bonus action, ¡con café! At the end of the game, add up the combined score of all your pan dulce to determine the winner. Every round you play goes better ¡con café!

The object of the game is to collect sets of cards that will score the most points. Divide the deck into four stacks of pan dulce cards, face up, forming the display case. Each round begins by placing one tray per player in the center of the table.
On your turn, you may select one or two cards from the display case and place them onto one or two trays that are not yet full. Or, instead of adding more cards, you may take one of the trays and all of the cards it contains. You place those cards in front of you, and then pass for the remainder of the round. When only one tray remains on your turn, you must take it (no matter how full it is), but you also select a café card that grants a bonus action. After three rounds, each player scores the combination of cards they have taken throughout the game, and the player with the highest score is the winner!
