From the pure, radiant flavors of classic Blackberry and Spicy Pineapple to unexpectedly enchanting combinations such as Sour Cream, Cherry and Tequila, or Strawberry-Horchata, Paletas is an engaging and delicious guide to Mexico’s traditional—and some not-so-traditional—frozen treats.
 
Collected and developed by celebrated pastry chef Fany Gerson, this sweet little cookbook showcases her favorite recipes for paletas, those flavor-packed ice pops made from an enormous variety of fruits, nuts, flowers, and even spices; plus shaved ice (raspados) and aguas frescas—the delightful Mexican drinks featuring whole fruit and exotic ingredients like tamarind and hibiscus flowers.
 
Whether you’re drawn to a simple burst of fresh fruit—as in the Coconut, Watermelon, or Cantaloupe pops—or prefer adventurous flavors like Mezcal-Orange, Mexican Chocolate, Hibiscus-Raspberry, or Lime Pie, Paletas is an inviting, refreshing guide guaranteed to help you beat the heat.

      Starred review from April 15, 2011

      Mexican-born pastry chef Gerson follows up her groundbreaking My Sweet Mexico with a brilliant collection of recipes for frozen Mexican treats. As in her previous book, she here emphasizes the cultural significance of her recipes to set her collection apart and make it a fun read even for those who don't cook. Paletas, ice pop treats available in every Mexican town, are represented in a range of flavor combinations from traditional strawberry to Gerson's playful rice pudding; Gerson also introduces readers to raspados (similar to snow cones) and aguas frescas (cold fruit drinks). VERDICT With recipes for all skill levels and every taste, this streamlined collection will appeal to a diverse population of foodies. It should be especially popular in the New York area, where Gerson sold homemade paletas at markets last summer and is set to open a Mexican ice cream shop this spring. In this luscious book, Gerson proves that ice pops can be a gourmet treat. A surefire classic among the epicurean set.--Kelsy Peterson, Prairie Village, KS
