Yesterday my friend Tracy from Latinaish clued me in that the maker of one of my favorite Mexican candy bars, Bubu Lubu, is on Twitter! As we were telling a mutual friend, we both use the same Bubu Lubu buying strategy: one for now and one to stick in the refrigerator for later. At one of the local supermercados where I do my grocery shopping, they have both the room-temperature candy bars and a special little display in the refrigerator case by the checkout line that are already nice and cold. Not familiar with Bubu Lubu? It’s a candy bar with marshmallow inside, topped with a strawberry-flavored jelly and covered in chocolate.
- How do you like your Bubu Lubu?
Qué tortura! … That photo… LOL. I haven’t had a Bubu Lubu for a couple months. Part of it was to see if I had the discipline not to eat them, (because I was up to a one-a-day habit ROFL), and the other reason was because the bodega guy who sells them to me got too friendly, (long story – but I think you already read it?)
Anyway, I have tried mine room temperature, fridge and freezer and my favorite is actually the freezer! (It also forces you to eat it more slowly when it’s frozen. jajaja…)
Haha. Tracy, I was wondering if you had been back to the bodega! You know you have an open invitation from me at any time to request a shipment, and I promise mine comes without piropos hahahaha. I like mine refrigerated to be as cold as possible but still pliable enough to break apart to share or not have to treat it like a paleta.
Break apart and SHARE?!
lol… Thanks for the open invitation – I will remember it in case needed. My husband’s co-workers are my secondary Bubu Lubu dealers so I have a back up for now.
I’m going to have to check out my local bodega, we don’t have that candy in Venezuela but I think it should be everywhere ’cause it sounds delish!!
Yum! Looks delicious. Remind me of the Ganzitos
No lo he probabo y tampoco lo he visto por acá, but I know about it because of Tracy’s obsession. I didn’t know you were obsessed too, Maura! Jajaja!!! Having it frío or at room temperature reminded me of Gansitos, which I love to eat very frío!!
Roxana, we’re gansitos fans in our house too. Haha… Is there any junk food we don’t like? 😉
