Cuban Midnight Sandwich Bread (Pan de Media Noche) — 16oz

Pan de Media Noche — the sweeter Cuban sandwich bread

Pan de Media Noche ("midnight bread") is the sweeter, softer, egg-enriched cousin of Pan Cubano. It's named after the famous medianoche sandwich — the late-night Cuban sandwich served at Havana cabarets that needed a bread softer than Pan Cubano. Pillowy, slightly sweet, with a thin golden crust.

Product details

How to use

1. Build a medianoche sandwich: ham, roast pork, Swiss, pickles, mustard — press until golden. The sweet bread is what makes a medianoche different from a Cubano.
2. Toast slices for a softer, sweeter tostada cubana at breakfast.
3. Use as French toast bread — its egg dough is perfect for soaking custard.

Cubano vs Medianoche — what's the difference?

Same filling (ham, pork, Swiss, pickles, mustard). Different bread. A Cubano uses Pan Cubano (crusty, savory). A Medianoche uses Pan de Media Noche (soft, slightly sweet). The medianoche is the late-night, slightly fancier version.
