Dulcería El Secreto
This artisanal candy shop in Polanco gives traditional Mexican confections a charming, contemporary setting. The shop—as colorful as the sweets it sells—focuses on recipes of indigenous origin, with treats made from ingredients like amaranth, honey, burnt goat milk, and nuts, all wrapped in packaging handmade by Mexican artisans. Locals love the mueganos—fried pieces of unleavened dough covered in a sticky piloncillo (unrefined cane sugar) syrup—and chupirules, a colorful, cone-shaped lollipop-like creation made of piloncillo.
