Pastelitos · Miami
Flaky Cuban pastries with guayaba, queso, carne or coco fillings, the ventanita classic that travels from the morning cafecito break to a midnight snack on Calle Ocho.
Pastelitos arrived in Miami with Cuban exiles in the 1960s, drawing on Spanish empanada and laminated-dough traditions. Vicky Bakery opened in 1972, Pinecrest Bakery followed in 2007, and the form went 24-hour with Hialeah panaderias. The classic flavours are guayaba (guava), guayaba con queso, carne (ground beef) and coco (coconut).
