The Very Best of Baccara is a compilation album by Spanish duo Baccara released by Sony BMG in June 2006.
This 14 track compilation was issued by Sony-BMG (formerly BMG-Ariola) and while it includes recordings by the original formation of the duo, Mayte Mateos and Maria Mendiola, is digitally remastered and offers one rarity in the form of the Spanish-language version of "The Devil Sent You Lorado" it omits many of the duo's hits and best known songs such as "Darling", "Number One", "Granada", "Cara Mia", "Koochie-Koo", "Can't Help Falling In Love", "Feel Me", "Baby Why Don't You Reach Out/Light My Fire", "Somewhere In Paradise" and "By 1999", most of which were included on the 18 track UK edition The Best of Baccara issued the year before. The international version replaces many of these with selections from their final album Bad Boys and only contains two tracks from their best-selling debut Baccara.
