Wheat flour is used extensively in Guatemalan baking for pan dulce (sweet bread), pastries, and traditional breads. Guatemala imports most of its wheat, primarily from the United States and Canada, making flour prices sensitive to international grain markets and shipping costs. Pan dulce bakeries are found in every town and are a key part of daily food culture.
