Best Cake Places in Mexico

"In one of the most beautiful neighborhoods of Coyoacán, is Ruta de la Seda, a cozy place where bakery and pastry focus on supporting local suppliers, so all their products are organic and of the highest quality. For the day of the Three Kings, here they prepare a rosca with a creamy filling that can be vanilla, chocolate, and orange. Going to Ruta de la Seda is always a guarantee, so if you choose this place to celebrate the tradition, you will have made a good decision."

"This organic bakery is a staple in Coyoacán and THE breakfast spot for many locals (the waiting line can get crazy). It’s named after the famous Silk Road that for centuries connected East and West, so it’s not a surprise that the house specialty is the ‘Matcha’: drinks, pastries, truffles, cakes… you name it, they make it. Our favorite matcha creation was the ’Kioto cake’– not extremely sweet, but not bitter either."

"In one of the most beautiful neighborhoods of Coyoacán, there is the Ruta de la Seda. The concept started in 2007 as a pastry and bakery project focused on supporting local suppliers linked to organic agriculture and fair trade, achieving an exquisite variety of flavors and textures. Afterwards, their menu was growing with breakfasts, sandwiches and tartines, and an extensive drink menu."

Mostly the David Chipperfield-designed museum in Polanco shows off the fact that contemporary art is still not that easy to find. The Jumex Foundation website (redesigned multiple times since the museum opened in 2012) has gotten a little better at promoting shows as they’re scheduled to open, and that includes nearly a full slate for 2017."
