"Lolly’s Bakery is an East Boston staple that opened in 1997. Operated by Patty Guzman, this Latin American bake shop is known throughout the neighborhood for its array of Mexican, Colombian, and Guatemalan pastries. Look no further than Lolly’s for some of the best conchas and guava-filled pan dulce the city has to offer. Lolly’s is also famous for its custom wedding and birthday cakes, which come in flavors like tres leches, flan, and mille-feuille, which is made with vanilla cream in between layers of puff pastry. The bakery has a second location in Lynn." - Katie Draisen
