Jasmine’s Bakery

I have been lucky enough to get a taste of the cream cheese filled bolillo bread from this bakery. A good friend of mine (Diannah R.) was wonderful enough to share the goods from this place.
I read some of the previous reviews from other Unilocalers and one of the complaints was that there wasn’t enough cream cheese inside the breads. I’ve had at least 5 different occasions where Diannah brought me bread and not once have I been short changed.
They give a really good amount of cream cheese, as a matter of fact… If they put anymore in there it would be called cream cheese w a side of bread hahah.
I happen to enjoy it! The bread is soft and when you bite into the bread and get some of the cream cheese filling, it’s almost like Christmas and you find the present inside the bread.
And did I mention the jalapeños inside… Yummmmm! If I had a complaint it would be that there weren’t enough jalapeños inside, but then again some people might find it a bit spicy so maybe that’s why they don’t put too much inside.
Shafter definitely has a jewel on their hands!

Very disappointed in the amount of filling compared to the void inside the bolillo con chile

The best Shafter has to offer in terms of Mexican bread, and they also sell donuts. They sell bollilos, and other sorts of breads that aren’t necessarily sweet, I.e. jalapeño bread. It’s coffee from what I’ve heard from the locals, isn’t the best, but I didn’t try it, so can’t review that, but overall pretty cool spot! It’s also right next to a little Mexican store.
