Your holiday tamales, already in the freezer.
Every December our calendar fills up, and we cannot cook hot-and-ready orders for everyone who wants them. Frozen tamales solve that: you buy them now, keep them in your freezer and heat them the day of your party. Tamales were made to be frozen. The husk keeps the masa moist and the filling sealed, so they come out just as good as the day we made them.
- Beat the tamales rush. The weeks before Thanksgiving and Christmas sell out first. A box bought now is one less thing to chase in December.
- Thaw the day before. Move them to the fridge the night before your party, steam them for about 10 minutes, and serve.
- Our two best sellers. Chicken in green salsa and pork in red salsa, BIG and packed, with gluten-free masa.
- Delivery or pickup. We deliver within 15 miles of our Plano kitchen, or you pick them up there.

Good to know before you order
How do I heat frozen tamales?
Move them from the freezer to the fridge the day before your party. On the day, steam them in their husks for about 10 minutes, until the masa pulls away from the husk. In a hurry, steam them straight from frozen for 20–25 minutes. A microwave works in a pinch: two tamales in a damp paper towel for two to three minutes.
Can I pick up frozen tamales?
Yes. Frozen orders can be picked up at our commercial kitchen in Plano, TX. We send the address and your pickup time with your confirmation.
Do you deliver frozen tamales?
Yes, within 15 miles of West Spring Creek Pkwy & Custer Rd in Plano, for a $14 delivery fee. That covers most of Plano, Allen, McKinney, Frisco, Richardson, Carrollton, The Colony, Murphy, Addison and Far North Dallas. Farther away, pick up at the kitchen by appointment, or ask us about a special delivery arrangement at an additional cost.
Which flavors can I buy frozen?
Our two best sellers: chicken in green salsa and pork in red salsa, both BIG and made with gluten-free corn masa. They are $60 a dozen plus 8.25% sales tax and a 3% card processing fee, and you can mix the two in any split.
How long do frozen tamales keep?
Keep them frozen and they hold their flavor for about three months, so a box bought in October or November is ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Once thawed, keep them in the fridge and eat them within three days.
When should I order?
Now. The weeks before Thanksgiving and Christmas fill first, and we cannot cook hot-and-ready orders for everyone who asks. Next day orders must be received and confirmed by us before noon the previous day. Only confirmed orders will be delivered as requested.
