Description
Abuelita is a brand of chocolate, made by Nestlé and used to make Mexican-style hot chocolate. It was originally invented and commercialized in Mexico since 1939, by Fábrica de Chocolates La Azteca. The name is an affectionate Spanish word for “grandma” (literally translated as “little grandmother” or “granny”). Since 1973, Mexican actress Sara García has been the image for the brand before it was acquired by the Swiss company in the 1990s.
Abuelita is often prepared for special occasions, such as Day of the Dead (a holiday similar to Halloween in which people remember their family and friends whose spirits have gone to the afterlife) and Las Posadas (Christmas season).
