You HAVE to look for Mazapán Azteca, it is the best one, for sure.
And as recomended above, try to look for some ‘glorias’, ‘natillas’ or anything made of ‘leche quemada’ (it is caramelized goat’s milk and loads of sugar, sometimes with nuts). They are typical of northeast Mexico, totally delicious and not spicy/salty at all :)

Yes I agree Elizabeth, the best Mazapanes are the Azteca!!! De La Rosa texture and flavor cannot compare to the authentic one, which I believe the Azteca were the first one’s. I’ve tried to order some online but cannot find a website (can someone tell me how I can order) I live in Texas. Every time I search for mazapanes the De La Rosa ones always pop up.

The best, best, mazapan is Mazapan Azteca. I am from Monterrey Mexico, and this mazapan has been the favorite for decades. Not all the mexican good candy are spicy. My advice to you is try “Natillas Linares” which are made with milk. You can also try “Nuez garampiñada” which is pecan with roasted sugar… mmmh! delicious! I would like to show you that excelent Mexican food is not always only spicy food or tacos.

You should try the Dulces Vero Mazapan, it tastes a lot better than the others.

You HAVE to try “Glorias” They are mexican caramel made out of goat milk – the taste is supprising first, but be carefull, it’s addictive – There’s different versions – some are plan, some are hard caramel… my favorite have nuts in them…

Very interesting! I’ve never heard of mazapan and knew nothing about Mexican candy before reading this. Thanks for sharing…maybe someday I’ll get to try this mazapan.
