Add article description

Here is a list of sweet breads. Sweet bread, also referred to as pan dulce, buns, or coffee bread,[1] is a bread or cake that is typically sweet in flavor. Some sweet breads, such as Portuguese pão doce, may be prepared with potato flour, which imparts a sweet flavor and light texture to them.[2] Some sweet breads that originated as cake-breads, such as lardy cake, Bath buns, and Chelsea buns, are classified as sweet breads in contemporary culinary taxonomy, even though some still have the word "cake" in them.[3]

Not to be confused with sweetbreads.
