The baker became essential to Goan celebrations because his products were required at every important occasion. Sweet bread called bol was a must as a marriage gift, sandwiches were prepared for a daughter's engagement, and cakes and bolinhas were essential for Christmas and other festivals. Thus, a party or feast lost its charm without bread.
