How to Make Pan de Muertos | Mexican Bread of the Dead | Day of the Dead

Pan de Muertos is a traditional Mexican bread served on Día de Los Muertos. It is a sweetened bread flavoured with anise and orange. This bread has great significance in Mexican culture. The day of the dead is a holiday where people welcome back the souls of their deceased loved ones.

Each part of the uniquely shaped bread symbolizes something. The round body of the loaf represents the circle of life and death. The ball on the top of the loaf represents the skull of the deceased. And the segmented pieces laid across the loaf represent bones and tears. Flavoured with anise and orange it has a unique taste. It is enriched with sugar, eggs, and butter. A Mexican brioche of sorts. It is also cold fermented.
