In the sticky heat they are irresistible. With that delicious image in mind, we present our 71st Quarterly Edition for summer 2026, “Paletas.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rich-text\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"heading-b\"\u003eCOOL BEGINNINGS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the 1940s, Ignacio and Luis Alcázar and their cousin Agustín Andrade left the small town of Tocumbo, Michoacán, dreaming of a better life. The trio arrived in Mexico City, where they opened a small shop selling paletas, frozen treats on a stick made from real fruit and fresh ingredients, which they had been concocting for their neighbors in Tocumbo for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTheir paletería was a great success, and they expanded quickly, offering franchises to their friends and relatives back in Tocumbo. Soon there were thousands of paleterías all over Mexico, and so many of them were owned by natives of Tocumbo that these shops became widely known as Las Michoacanas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMexican immigrants brought paleterías with them to the United States–first throughout the American Southwest, then to cities like New York, Miami, and Chicago. Today, thankfully, paletas can be found just about anywhere in the U.S.A.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rich-text\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"heading-b\"\u003ePACK A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rich-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChicle \u003c\/strong\u003e(Blue), \u003cstrong\u003eSandía \u003c\/strong\u003e(Red), and \u003cstrong\u003eQueso Crema \u003c\/strong\u003e(White)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"heading-b\"\u003eREAL, FRESH INGREDIENTS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe covers are printed on 12pt WestRock Tango C1S cover stock, with shiny gloss and frosty matte\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003evarnishes.
