The story of La Michoacana Premium begins in the 1940s, in the small town of Tocumbo, Michoacán, Mexico. Sugarcane thrived in this region, laying the foundation for a frozen dessert revolution. The first paleteria, or ice cream stand, emerged in Tocumbo, offering these refreshing treats. The popularity of the paleta quickly spread, becoming a beloved roadside and park staple throughout Mexico. The paleta’s journey didn’t stop at the border. It migrated north, first to California and then throughout the United States, bringing the vibrant flavors of Michoacán to new communities. La Michoacana Premium carries on this legacy.
