So, what makes Las Paletas lollies different? Well, you won’t find anything artificial in these lollies, they’re made with real ingredients and are focused on yummy, natural flavours.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Innovation is the name of the game and the pair have spent many hours conceptualising and bringing to life their unique lollies. There are so many delicious flavours, too many to list, but think Gooseberry Cheesecake, White Chocolate and Berries, Coconut Lemonade and Key Lime Pie just to name a few.<\/p>\n
Prior to creating Las Paletas, Diana worked as a graphic designer and Jason in marketing but both felt a strong pull to start their own business. Their combined love for food made going this route a natural choice for them. We asked the pair to tell us a little bit about their journey and working as a team…<\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div>\nSome say you shouldn\u2019t mix business with pleasure, how is it working out for you both?<\/strong><\/h4>\nWe challenge each other constantly and we’ve realised over the past four years that we challenge each other for the greater good. We both have different strengths and we complement each other.<\/p>\n
We are increasingly seeing a rise in food orientated entrepreneurs. What advice would you give to someone who wants to start their own foodie business but has no idea where to start?<\/strong><\/h4>\nStick with your guts. Do not deviate from your beliefs no matter what anyone tells you and learn from your mistakes.<\/p>\n
We are currently seeing a trend of sweet or savoury ingredients being used interchangeably; we’re thinking bacon flavoured ice cream. Is this something you\u2019ve experimented with? Also, what ice cream flavour combo should you never attempt?<\/strong><\/h4>\nWe’re currently making salted caramel, pineapple and chilli. We think you should attempt everything!<\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div>\n\u00a0We\u2019ve always wondered… what do ice cream folk do in the winter?<\/strong><\/h4>\nWe recover from a hectic summer! We get some sleep and recharge our batteries. We also use this time to focus on how to make the business better.<\/p>\n
We know that Las Paletas is a wedding dessert favourite; do you have any tips on the best way to eat a lolly without spilling on a nice outfit?<\/strong><\/h4>\nOur lollies are not aerated, so they take way longer to melt. They are also served at -22 and not -10 like other soft ice creams, so need to worry about messing!<\/p>\n
Are there any expansion plans for Las Paletas?<\/strong><\/h4>\nWe currently have a franchise in South America and are planning something similar for South Africa and Europe. We’re still small and pay the same amount of attention to the manufacturing of our products that we did from day one. So, one day, when we expand further, all our products will be the same quality as what they are today. Nothing artificial.<\/p>\n
