Brazo gitano, the rolled sponge cake

DirectionsWebsiteCall

The business began in the city in 1850 as a chocolate maker, and the cake recipe came with Enrique Franco, who brought it from Andalusia. The shop's own claim is that a trip to Mayagüez isn't complete until you have stopped here, which makes it a traditional place to pick up the cake it is named for.
