The Mapusa market is also home to some of Goa's most famous bakeries, and the market is especially visited for their most un-Goan hot cross buns, sold along with more traditional confectioneries like pinagre, guava cheese, doce, dodol, rose-de-coque cookies and bebinca, the delectable layered cake made with a dozen eggs. Simonia Bakery, in fact, offers hot cross buns at all times.
Don't forget to buy the trademark bag which tells everyone you shopped at Mapusa. You will find whole stalls offering these striped and strong plastic bags which can comfortably carry 20 coconuts all the way back to Latembarcem on the bus.
