Well, hello sugar and all sorts of other yummy things. Ricos was founded in 1968 by a Cuban family. I love the package. Chiviricos are heavy, meringues are not. I don't have a Cuban grandmother but I have been told Rico's Chiviricos taste like the ones their Cuban grandma used to make. If you have a Cuban Grandma who made chiviricos ask for a taste and let us know; if you have a Grandpa who ate them, let us know! We actually made the best discovery with the meringues when we were traveling. After about two days in our cooked-up car I found they transformed into a really unique texture. While they still held their shape they deflated upon biting much like you would expect a powder-puff mushroom to respond. Far superior to any marshmallow. If you are a wheat-free person let us know and we can send you meringues only. They are a great wheat-free sweet.
