★ Our story
Family-made paletas in the heart of Pomona
La Michoacana Tradicional is a family-owned paletería and nevería in Pomona, CA, proudly run by the Viteri Family. We craft authentic Mexican paletas (fruit and cream popsicles) and nieves (ice cream) using fresh fruit, 100% natural ingredients, and recipes passed down through generations. Favorites include our Strawberry Paleta, Spicy Mango with Chile, Choco Banana, and Mexican Chocolate ice cream, plus classic treats like aguas frescas, horchata, esquites, mangonadas, churro ice cream, and banana splits. We also offer catering for quinceañeras, parties, and special events. Stop by 716 E Arrow Hwy, open daily 11 AM–9 PM, or order delivery on DoorDash. Real fruit, real family, real flavor.
