Panaderia Sabor a Mexico — Restaurant in Boulder

I hadn't been in awhile until a week or two ago. Right away I saw a lovely rack of assorted rolls. The ones that caught my eye first are about 8" long, with melted cheese escaping. Show me melted cheese and I'm happy. I don't remember yeast breads available at this particular bakery and have always thought of it as cookies and pastries.

I was planning on making a tres leches cake for my son’s birthday party but got locked out of my apartment morning of, so I started driving around frantically trying to find one I could buy. You typically have to order cakes in advance and was told so by one other bakery by the time I got to Panaderia Sabor a Mexico, but they were kindly willing to sell me one of the cakes they had planned to sell in individual slices that day, saving the day for me.
