An ice pop shop in Fairfield has put a unique spin on Mexican paletas, and it may just be the thing to get you through a hot summer day.
A paleta is a Mexican treat made with natural flavors. The shop puts their own twist on paletas by having a choice to dip in chocolate and to add toppings. There are 20 flavors, five of which are water-based and 15 contain dairy.
The shop hopes to bring authentic flavors and their unique touch to people in Fairfield.
The owner of Dave's Gourmet Paleta's tells News 12 he was inspired to open the shop after seeing the treats in Miami.
