1. Panrico Donuts

Who hasn’t opened a glazed Donuts wrapper and felt instantly transported back to childhood? This classic treat from Panrico was born in the 1960s and has been synonymous with school breaks, afternoon snacks, and sweet cravings ever since. Its fluffy texture and unmistakable glaze bring us right back home. Sure, there are other "donuts" out there, but none taste quite like the original Spanish one.

At Your Spanish Corner, you can find them ready to enjoy, even from far away. We know they have a short shelf life, which is why we always send them with the longest expiry date available. A little tip: freeze them as soon as they arrive to preserve all their goodness. When a craving hits, just let them thaw naturally... and enjoy that unique taste that feels just like home.

2. Fuet

Crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. Catalan fuet is one of those things you miss the moment you step into another country. Perfect for snacking, sandwiches, or pairing with a glass of wine. In many places, you won't find anything similar—and if you do, it’s just not the same.

At Your Spanish Corner, we always have top-quality fuet ready to ship to your door, with the traditional Casa Tarradellas fuet being a customer favorite.

3. Homemade-Style Fried Tomato Sauce

It might sound simple, but finding a good fried tomato sauce outside Spain is no easy task. In many countries, tomato sauces are too sweet, too acidic, or simply bland. Nothing beats our Spanish-style tomato sauce, made with onion, garlic, and olive oil.

It’s a must-have for hearty meatballs, a quick Cuban-style rice, or a lasagna that actually tastes like home.

4. ColaCao

Few flavors define a Spanish childhood quite like ColaCao. Whether in a glass of hot or cold milk, lumpy or smooth, every sip is a trip back to those simpler days. And let's be honest, no Nesquik can even come close to its unique flavor.

5. Jijona Turrón

You don’t need Christmas as an excuse to miss turrón. The soft almond turrón from Jijona is a true gem of our dessert tradition. While there are dozens of varieties, the classic remains the most beloved by Spaniards living abroad.

Having a bar of turrón at home during the holidays feels like having a precious piece of Spain on your table.

6. Cured Chorizo

A list like this wouldn't be complete without chorizo. Whether it’s sliced, in a sandwich, or cooked in a hearty lentil stew, cured chorizo is a true symbol of our cuisine. Its flavor, its aroma, that slightly spicy or smoky touch... it’s hard to find anything quite like it outside of Spain.

At Your Spanish Corner, you’ll find everything from cooking chorizo to premium cured varieties.

7. María Cookies

Yes, there are cookies everywhere, but none like María cookies—Fontaneda and other classic brands. Their light texture, just-right sweetness, and the way they soak up milk (only to break at the very last moment!) make them irreplaceable. Perfect for breakfast, dipping into coffee, or making homemade custard just like grandma used to.

You might find imitations abroad, but none truly capture that special taste. They're a basic pantry item that always brings us back to childhood the moment we take a bite.

8. Serrano Ham

Of course, Serrano ham had to be here. One of Spain’s national treasures and one of the most missed products by Spaniards living abroad. Thinly sliced, paired with tomato bread, or enjoyed on its own, it's a delicacy we crave whenever we're far from home. And no, prosciutto is not the same…

9. Sobao Pasiego

Sobaos are the very definition of a tender, buttery snack. Originally from Cantabria, they’ve become a national classic. Outside of Spain, it’s almost impossible to find anything quite like them—and even if you do, it’ll never match the real thing.

Perfect for a coffee break or taking a sweet piece of home to the office.

10. Spanish Preserved Foods

Spanish canned goods are an art form, bringing flavor, tradition, and convenience into our pantries for decades. For those of us living abroad, having a good stash of Spanish preserves is almost a necessity: they’re easy to store, last a long time, and—most importantly—they taste like home!

Pickled mussels are a timeless classic. Their intense, slightly tangy flavor immediately transports us to a casual Sunday aperitif, a cold beer in hand and great company around. But they’re not alone.

Litoral’s Asturian fabada is another essential. Open a can and you'll find a full stew: tender fabes, rich compango meats, and a thick, savory broth. It’s a real treat when you’re far from home and want a comforting meal without the hassle.

And let’s not forget canned anchovies. Small, delicate, intensely flavorful—perfect for topping a slice of tomato toast or jazzing up a salad. Their salty kick is unmistakable and absolutely addictive.

At Your Spanish Corner, you’ll find a carefully curated selection of Spanish preserves that will make your life easier—and a lot more delicious. Because living far away doesn’t mean giving up the flavors and quality that feel like home.
