La Tiendita: La Newyorkina Brooklyn Introduce

Introduction / Overview

For New Yorkers seeking a true escape to the vibrant, sweet flavors of Mexico, a visit to La Tiendita: La Newyorkina Brooklyn is a must. More than just an ice cream shop, this Red Hook staple is a celebrated destination that doubles as a bakery, bringing the authentic taste of Mexican confectionery to the heart of Brooklyn. Founded by James Beard-nominated pastry chef Fany Gerson, the concept was born from a dream to share the quintessential frozen treats of her native Mexico with the NYC community. After a resounding success with her handcrafted paletas—traditional Mexican ice pops—at a street fair in 2010, the business flourished, cementing its status as a local favorite.

La Tiendita’s philosophy revolves around quality, authenticity, and community. Every single product is made from scratch in small batches, guaranteeing exceptional flavor without the use of artificial colorings or flavorings. Ingredients are thoughtfully sourced, pairing organic dairy and seasonal fruits from New York farms with essential, high-quality imports directly from Mexico, such as Oaxacan chocolate, Mexican vanilla beans from Papantla, tamarind, and dried chiles. The commitment to social and environmental responsibility, including working towards a waste-free operation and supporting small Mexican producers, is an integral part of their mission. This unique approach results in desserts that are intensely flavorful and genuinely transportive, offering New Yorkers a sweet slice of Mexican culture.

Best ice pop I ever had ……ever!!!! I had it at BBG and loved it so much I saved the wrapper so I could look into delivery, unfortunately they are very expensive to ship guess it just gives me another reason to go back to Brooklyn more frequently bc now I must try the other flavors too, lol. Thanks for the refreshing treat!
June 01 · CAS&ARSC Smile
A very small place. It's different. I went to check out their Mexican style ice pops. You ring a bell and you are let into a tiny space. There is an interesting selection. I thought there would be more flavors. The lady that helped me was super nice and helpful. I had the Strawberry. It's called Oiishi Koyo Strawberry. It was very tasty and refreshing. It cost $5. It's made with natural fruit. They have an area with cute decorations. If you're in Red Hook, check it out.
July 01 · Vivianne Barretto
Everything here is truly delicious! Definitely worth a trip. Highly recommend the passion fruit, watermelon, Maria cookie and Oreo paletas. Ring the bell to be let in if it looks closed.
August 10 · Emily Hosek
After a hot day in Dumbo, we drove a few minutes to Red Hook for the most amazing ice pops on the East Coast. La Newyorkina offers this outpost for diehard fans and newbies to purchase and enjoy her paletas (ice pops on a stick).On this day we picked up Mango Chili, Passion Fruit, Coconut, and Horchata flavored pops.The paletas are robust in flavor, pepperd with 100% fruit. These are truly transformative snacks that will quench your thirst and sweet tooth. Highly recommended.

Make sure to ring the doorbell if the door appears closed! Lime basil paleta was delicious.
