A concha (, ) is a traditional Mexican sweet bread (pan dulce) with similar consistency to a brioche. 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), the most common topping flavors being chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry. Conchas are commonly found throughout Mexico, Guatemala, and their diasporas in panaderias (). They can also be found in grocery stores and bakeries across the United States.
