| - I am obsessed with this "paletas". I am finding every excuse to drive 36 miles to the Chandler store. I have been there twice and I will be going tomorrow. The first time I was lucky enough to meet the "Betty" of Paletas Betty. She is a cute, tiny little thing. So charming. She was so nice and accommodating. I had my soft side cooler with me, hey, I have twins, you cannot imagine what I carry in my cars. Armed with my cooler, I got a dozen paletas the first time. I tasted Pineapple con Chili, so special. Great pineapple flavor with a great kick from the red pepper chili flakes. The Naranja, Orange was delicious I only had a small bite since the twins wouldn't share. My hubby had the Cookies and Cream one, another one who wouldn't share. The Cereza (Cherry) was awesome. I really liked the vanilla based ice cream with big cherries all over. Then, the piece de resistance, the Limon, it is like biting into a frozen piece of key lime pie, one side of the paleta has the graham cracker crust. So delicious. I had two, plus all the other ones.
My second trip I got another dozen, of course I had a few Limon, plus Strawberry, Oh this is like fresh strawberries and creme. Those two are my favorite. I also tried the Zarzamora, a blackberry/lavender concoction, very refreshing. The "Platano" is very good. It is like biting into a frozen caramelized banana. Can't wait for my next trip to Paletas Betty. I already placed my cooler back in the car. Yay!
