Boulder Tamales

Specialties

As a small catering company, Boulder Tamales makes premium organic tamales using high quality ingredients and 100% extra virgin olive oil. Vegetarian and Vegan options are very popular. Low fat meats and tasty fillings are primarily from Colorado sources. The corn masa is organic and non-​GMO. They cook in small batches and assemble each tamale by hand so that the tamales are always fresh, flavorful and double-​husked.

Wow, dessert tamales! Peach Ginger, Apple Raisin Pecan and Coconut Pineapple Raisin (vegan). All the sweet tamales are made with organic ingredients.

You can pick up or arrange delivery from their licensed commissary kitchen in south Boulder. The Vegan and Vegetarian varieties are found at Alfalfa’s, Lucky’s, Vitamin Cottage or Whole Foods Markets in and around Boulder County, and Whole Foods Westminster.

History

Established in 2009.

.

Proprietors Connie and Eduardo love creative and healthy Mexican cooking. Their tamale recipe came to them while preparing some for dinner. They didn’t want to use unhealthy saturated fats like lard or vegetable shortening in the mix. Instead they discovered that extra virgin olive oil added a wonderful and sophisticated aromatic flavor and scrumptious texture.

Connie says, «At a birthday party our tamales were gone in 5 minutes before the other foods even had a chance to be served. The guests were crazy for them…» So the husband and wife team felt it their mission to share these «healthy packets of delight» with the world. They enjoy making all kinds of tamales, including exotic gourmet ones wrapped in Banana Leaves.

Bringing Mexican food into the 21^st century is an exciting creative process. Buen provecho!
