Tigretón snack cakes

Tigretón is a historic and popular snack cake originally created in Spain during the 1970s. It consists of a rolled sponge cake filled with apricot jam and cream, finished with a comprehensive chocolate coating. For decades, it has been a staple of the Spanish 'merienda' (afternoon snack) and is part of a nostalgic trio of snacks alongside products like Bony and Pantera Rosa.

While the brand reached its peak popularity under the Spanish company Bimbo Iberia, it is now globally integrated into the portfolio of Grupo Bimbo. The product is manufactured primarily in Spain to serve the European market, though its popularity among Hispanic communities has led to production and distribution in other regions like Mexico and the United States under the broader Bimbo brand umbrella.
