Polvoron


I recently discovered these delicate little cakes at a local bakery, the Star Bakery. The main ingredients are powedered milk or flour, sugar, butter. They melt in your mouth as soon as you eat them. They are very buttery and sweet.


They're so irresistible; you can't have just one! Get a bunch -- they cost only $0.25 each.

Star Bakery, where you can find Chamorro cake and other local baked goods

“Vegetables are a must on a diet. I suggest carrot cake, zucchini bread, and pumpkin pie.” -- Jim Davis, "Garfield"


The Star Bakery is located inside the Star Plaza on Broadway.


The bakery offers moist, delicious Chamorro cake, a local favorite. The cake is spongy and is great with morning coffee or during merienda.


You can order various kinds of pies for special occassions, or simply come in to the bakery to see what they've made that day.


Chamorro cookies and rosketti are also available.

Fine Baked Goods at the Island Store

“Oh, God above, if heaven has a taste it must be an egg with butter and salt, and after the egg is there anything in the world lovlier than fresh warm bread and a mug of sweet golden tea?” -- Frank McCourt, Angela's Ashes (1996)


Want great bread? Get it at the Island Store!


Located in a nondescript corner of the lobby of the Tinian Dynasty Hotel & Casino, between the elegant Chinese Restaurant and the bustling Broadway Restaurant, the tiny Island Store is a giant contender when it comes to the quality of breads and baked goods that it offers guests and locals.

Background: Coconut bread; Foreground: Pandan Bread. Also available: Garlic bread, French bread, red bean bread, walnut-raisin bread, and whole wheat bread.

Pandan bread is green in color and simply delicious. The ingredients for this bread include leaves from the pandan plant and coconut milk. There is a delicious fragrance and a distinctly unique flavor to this bread. I hope you'll try it out if you haven't already!


These buttery doughnuts are $1 each (price subject to change); they're so big, so round and simply delicious!

Breads and doughnuts are baked fresh every day and are available beginning at 8 or 8:30 a.m. Ask for Executive Chef Gladwin Stevenson for special orders.
