Company Profile

Welcome to the Back Kitchen…

What started as a father's way to share better treats with his daughters is growing into a brand made to connect with every person's taste, lifestyle, and unique story.

Our Story

It started with a father's search for a better afternoon snack for his three daughters: fruity paletas made with real ingredients and no refined sugar.

They say kids are the harshest critics, and these three were no exception. Batch after batch followed, until one day, a winning recipe — and a spark:

“Dad, you should sell these.”

— Luna

Those words turned a family moment into the beginning of a brand.

The Unfolding

& The Vision

What began as small, Luna-approved batches quickly grew into something bigger. Inspired by the city we call home, LA Paleta evolved into a brand shaped by Dubai's energy, diversity, and active lifestyle — designed to fit different tastes, daily rhythms, and moments.

The Vision

Today, LA Paleta is ready to grow beyond its kitchen beginnings. With a strong foundation, a clear product philosophy, and a flexible brand system, the company is expanding within its home market and into new ones — adapting to local cultures while staying true to the heart that started it all.

Brand Pillars

Three core claims

To this day, every new flavour idea begins in our kitchen and is tested by our three toughest critics: our daughters. Only what earns their approval moves into full-scale production. It's the heart of our brand, and a constant reminder of the care, ethics, and product standards we refuse to compromise.

Homegrown, Naturally Delicious

Sweetened with Allulose
