When I think of authentic Mexican popsicles, I think of frozen fruit paletas.

The taste of a frozen lemon pospsicle brings back memories of spending the night with all my cousins at my grandma’s house. My grandma had a thing for bolis and paletas. For some reason she was always fully stocked when we arrived. She didn’t offer actual food to us when we walked through her door. Instead she offered us sweet frozen goodness. That is one of the biggest memories my whole family has of her.

When I was contacted by Santos Sabores I was skeptical to do a review. There are many products on the market that claim to be “authentic Mexican” or claim to come from “family-started” and “family-owned” companies. But when I learned more about the history of Santos Sabores, the more I felt connected and the more I felt like I wanted to share their story.

Nelda Sepulveda was born in Guadalajara, Jalisco to a Mexican father and an American mother. Since a very young age, Nelda and her two older sisters were raised to be independent women with entrepreneurial mindsets. Nelda instilled these family values into her life early on and has continuously worked hard to accomplish her goals.

As the fourth generation popsicle maker, Nelda decided to follow in her family’s footsteps and bring the popsicle business to the United States. As Nelda considered all aspects of her future business venture, she decided that there was one more necessary component.

Nelda partnered with professional boxing champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez to start a this amzing new Mexican popsicle brand. Partnering with “Canelo,” a super pop-star figure, seemed to be the perfect missing piece to her puzzle. Nelda knew that “Canelo” was no stranger to the popsicle business either, ensuring her that their combined expertise would make for a great product.

Together, Nelda and “Canelo” created Santos Sabores, an authentic popsicle brand that falls back on traditions of Mexico.

Nelda spent time developing eight wholesome flavors (pineapple, strawberry, hibiscus, coconut, mango, nut, lime, tamarind) while keeping her eye on healthy ingredients by using her training as a graduate of the San Diego Culinary Institute.

Nelda’s mission is to trigger a sense of nostalgia through these authentic flavors, prompting consumers to remember their home through their palette.

Santos Sabores, a company found on tradition, will be sure to bring the flavor of Mexico to any market and show their audience why the key to a great product truly is in the preparation.
