You can usually find a rosca pretty close by around early January, but the exact spots will depend on your city.

Fast ways to find one near you

Since location access is not available here, use these quick searches in your maps app or Google:

  • Search for: “panaderĂ­a mexicana near me” or “Mexican bakery rosca de reyes near me”.
  • Also try: “Latin bakery” or “Hispanic bakery”, then check photos/reviews for “Rosca de Reyes” mentions around January 6.
  • Call ahead and ask if they have rosca today, if they bake daily, and if they do pre-orders for next year.

Big stores that often carry rosca

Nationwide and regional chains sometimes stock packaged or bakery rosas in early January:

  • Large supermarkets and big-box stores (like Walmart, some warehouse clubs, and other chain grocers) increasingly sell Bimbo-style roscas or similar holiday breads around DĂ­a de Reyes.
  • Many of these can be ordered for pickup or local delivery through their grocery apps when in season.

Order online for delivery

If local bakeries are sold out, you can still get one shipped or delivered:

  • Grocery-delivery apps (like Instacart or similar services in your area) often list “Rosca de Reyes” from nearby supermarkets and Latin markets; look for sizes like 24 oz medium rosca.
  • Some specialty sites and marketplaces offer rosca with home delivery during the season, sometimes with free or low-cost shipping.

Timing tips (very important)

  • Traditional rosca season peaks right before and on January 6 (DĂ­a de Reyes), and many bakeries require pre-orders from January 3–6.
  • Outside that window, fresh roscas may be limited, so packaged versions from big stores or online shops are your best bet.
