Frequently Asked Questions
While both are delicious frozen treats on a stick, a PalettAmerica Paletta is inspired by the traditional Mexican paletería style. Instead of being water-based with fruit flavoring, our palettas are handcrafted using chunks of fresh fruit, rich Gelato, or creamy Yogurt. While a popsicle is a light, icy snack, our palettas are a dense, premium dessert.
That weight is a sign of our premium density. We handcraft our Palettas to be rich and solid. Our sorbets are packed with real fruit and our gelatos with high quality dairy. Because we don’t whip extra air into our base, you’re getting more actual dessert in every bite. It’s a satisfying, substantial treat that you can really feel!
You have plenty of time to savor every bite! Because our Palettas are crafted to be dense and full of real ingredients, they maintain their frozen texture beautifully. On a typical summer day, you can enjoy about 20 minutes of perfect consistency.
We believe in simplicity. Our recipes center on real fruit, fresh dairy, and premium ingredients. To protect our authentic taste, we never use artificial colorants, concentrates, or additives. By focusing on vibrant flavors and natural textures, we ensure that what you see in our catalog is exactly what you get on the stick.

It’s premium Italian gelato served on a Mexican Paletta style. Our gelato is dense, creamy, and because we churn our gelato slower than traditional ice cream, there’s less air and more flavor in every bite. It’s a gourmet gelato experience you can enjoy on the go. No spoon required!
Not all of them are, but we take our dairy free options seriously! Our Sorbet Palettas are crafted using 100% real fruit, filtered water, and natural sweetness. Because we use a high fruit-to-water ratio, they stay incredibly creamy and flavorful without needing any milk or cream. They’re a perfect, refreshing choice for our Vegan and dairy-sensitive friends!

We have a wide selection of dairy free Sorbets that are 100% Vegan. Look for the vegan label in our Flavor Catalog to find your perfect match.
It’s because we use real, fresh fruit! Since we don’t use artificial concentrates or colorants, our flavors follow the rhythm of nature. Just as one harvest of mangoes might be slightly sweeter or more vibrant than the next, our Palettas reflect the natural character of the fruit we select.
