I used to make fun of the notion of a business renting space to sell $3 popsicles, but Betty has won me over. Her paletas are legit. Her storefront is located on the edge of the Downtown Chandler business district. When you walk in, the first thing you notice is how immaculately clean and bright it is. There's usually only one clerk working because all he does is pull popsicles from freezers, but these are some awesome Mexican popsicles. They have fresh, in-season ingredients and unique flavor combinations.
I prefer the paletas with cream in them because of the softer texture. Yesterday, they had both of my favorites on hand. You can taste the distinctive freshness of the fruit in the fresa con crema (strawberries and cream). The berries are not pulverized into powder; you sitll get some texture. You get even more texture in the nuez (roasted pecan) with whole pecans in it.
I also enjoy the chocolate, the arroz con leche, and my wife's favorite is the key lime pie. It has a graham cracker-like crust on one side of the popsicle. I'm less of a fan of the paletas without cream because they're hard like a block of ice, but I still appreciate the bold flavors of the fresh fruit and spices.
This place has a lot going for it. I like their marketing. They have a bite mark in their popsicle mold, and attach a peelable sticker on every wrapper. (uh... for kids, not for me... let's just move on.) They regularly offer discounts on coupon sites. They provide fruit flavored water to their patrons. They have dog popsicles. (I'm dying to buy one for one of my friend's dogs and/or to pass off to my friend as a human popsicle and see how long it takes him to realize the joke.) The place just seems like a nice family business in the sea of chain restaurants known as Phoenix.
