About Morelia Gourmet Ice Cream Paletas Catering

Morelia Gourmet Paletas

Owner & Catering Director

Morelia Gourmet Paletas brings Michoacan-style gourmet ice cream bars (paletas) to weddings and celebrations across South Florida. We operate two Miami shops, Wynwood and Aventura Commons, plus a dedicated events team that caters weddings, receptions, rehearsal dinners, welcome parties and day-after brunches from Key Biscayne to Fort Lauderdale. We are kosher certified, our fruit flavors are naturally dairy-free, and we build every menu around your palette and your guest count so dessert feels like part of the design, not an afterthought.

Dessert becomes the entertainment. Instead of a plated slice, guests walk up to a branded paleta bar and build their own: pick a flavor, dip it in Belgian, dark or white chocolate, then finish it with pistachio, Oreo, sprinkles or sea salt. It is a photo moment, a mingling moment and dessert all at once. We are kosher certified, which is rare in Miami dessert catering, and our fruit paletas are dairy-free and vegan-friendly, so guests with restrictions get the same beautiful thing as everyone else. We bring the cart, the freezers, uniformed servers and the cleanup. Setup takes about 30 minutes and we leave your venue exactly as we found it.

    Great Product Amazin Service

    We had Paletas Morelia at our event and they were amazing! The paletas were delicious, there were so many flavors to choose from, and everyone loved them. The setup looked great and the team was super friendly and professional. It was definitely one of the highlights of the event. Highly recommend them for any party or special event!

    Amazing experience

    Working with Morelia Gourmet Ice Cream Paletas Catering was a game-changer for our event. Their communication was amazing and crystal clear from start to finish, making the entire planning process effortless. They arrived and had their stand fully operational in just 15 minutes, and their staff kept everything running smoothly throughout the day. Every guest grabbed a paleta and left completely satisfied, it was honestly a total hit. The product quality is exceptional, and the innovative approach to dessert service really impressed our couples. I'd absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a dessert vendor that delivers on both execution and taste.

Full-service starts at $985 for 50 guests, which covers the paleta bar, one uniformed server for two hours, delivery, setup and cleanup; additional paletas are $6.49 each. A mobile cart with 50 paletas starts at $835, and self-service delivery is $5.49 per paleta plus a $60 delivery fee. A typical 100-guest wedding lands around $1,336 all-in including 7% Florida sales tax. There is no maximum order size, so we can scale to 2,000 guests or more.
50 paletas, and there is no maximum: we regularly serve weddings of 300 or more and can produce thousands with enough notice. We usually recommend one paleta per guest plus about 10 percent extra when dessert is served late in the night, because most guests come back for a second one.
Yes. Morelia Gourmet Paletas is kosher certified, which is rare for dessert catering in South Florida. Our fruit paletas are water-based, so they are naturally dairy-free and vegan-friendly, and guests keeping kosher, dairy-free or plant-based can all be served from the same bar. Tell us about dietary needs when you inquire and we will build the flavor menu around them.
Two to three weeks is comfortable for most weddings, and popular Saturdays in season book earlier. If your date is sooner, ask anyway: we can often accommodate short notice, especially for self-service delivery. Booking early also gives us time to run your flavor selection and match the paletas to your color palette.
The cart needs roughly an 8 by 8 foot area. A standard outlet nearby is helpful but not required for shorter events, since our freezers hold temperature outdoors in Miami heat. Setup takes about 30 minutes and breakdown about 20. We arrive early, stage quietly and leave the space exactly as we found it.
We have 12 or more gourmet flavors, including mango, strawberry, lime, Belgian chocolate, Sicilian pistachio, dulce de leche, Oreo cookies and cream, strawberry cheesecake, mint chocolate chip, Greek yogurt with berries and Dubai chocolate. Fruit flavors are water-based and dairy-free. You choose the lineup ahead of time and we help you balance fruit, chocolate and cream options for your guest list.
Yes. We deliver and set up across Miami-Dade and Broward, from Wynwood, Brickell and Coral Gables to Aventura, Sunny Isles, Hollywood and Fort Lauderdale, for a flat $60 delivery fee. We have served hotels, private estates, museums, corporate campuses and beach venues, and we can provide the certificate of insurance most venues require.
Send us your date, venue, guest count and preferred service style and we will send a quote. We can invoice by card, payment link or bank transfer, whichever your planner or venue prefers, and we can issue a certificate of insurance for your venue. Payment is due before the event date.
