Owner of West Side bakery picks up pieces after burglary

The bakery’s door will cost $2,000 to fix, manager says

SAN ANTONIO – A West Side bakery is one of the latest establishments that have fallen victim to a break-in and burglary.

Panifico Bake Shop was broken into between Thursday night and Friday morning. Its glass door was shattered and two cash drawers were stolen.

Leticia Manzanarez, Panifico Bake Shop manager, said she has felt a range of emotions.

“I get mad, I get sad. Then, I get mad,” Manzanarez said.

The bakery does not keep money in the drawers overnight, Manzanarez said.

She said the bakery’s door would cost the business $2,000 to fix and has yet to determine how much it would cost to buy new cash drawers.

However, the setback isn’t stopping the bakery from providing the community with fresh treats.

“I think it brings the families together because, on Saturdays and Sundays, we have the most people walking through,” Manzanarez said.

San Antonio police said the break-in and robbery remain an active investigation.
