Tradition since 1970

Our Family Tradition

El Trigal was born from a family tradition that began in Ambato, Ecuador, in 1970, when the Toroshina Iguiquitin family began making bread following traditional recipes that were later passed down from generation to generation.

Freshly Baked Ecuadorian Bread in Orange

Artisanal bread in Ecuador is a fundamental pillar of families' daily meals. Aiming to bring those experiences back to life, at El Trigal we bake iconic breads with the same care and dedication, such as golden enrollados, flaky and fluffy cachitos (horn-shaped rolls), and traditional cheese empanadas packed with flavor.

For those who prefer native sweetness and textures, we offer our traditional pan de maíz (corn bread), soft pan de leche (milk bread), and delicious pan dulce (sweet bread). We also satisfy sweet cravings with an exquisite pan de chocolate and healthy choices with our crispy pan integral (whole wheat bread) prepared with premium ingredients.

Every day we prepare a wide variety of **fresh daily baked goods** that come out warm straight from our ovens starting at 6:00 AM. The freshness and unmistakable texture of our recipes are the seal of quality that represents us.
