All kinds of products from practically anywhere at Boerne Epicure — a gourmet market unlike any I’ll wager you’ve found yourself in before! 😉
Their items are unique, and often edible like Austin’s own Mom & Pops All Natural Pops. Laura and Manuel Flores began making their all natural frozen pops, or “paletas”, at home in Austin in the summer of 2008 as a healthy treat for their kids! These handcrafted pops pack a punch in flavor. Even more impressive is to learn they are free of dyes, colors, preservatives, stabilizers or artificial sweeteners.
Most pops are made with few than 5 ingredients. All of the cream used comes from grass fed cows and a good portion of their flavors are organic as well. While we’re talking flavors — they’re AMAZING! When the right amount of sweetness meets sugar. Here are a few of the ones we sampled:
PINEAPPLE BASIL
Fresh pineapple, filtered
water, fresh basil, pineapple
juice & organic evaporated
cane juice sugar
TAMARINDO — very unique!
Fresh tamarind, filtered
