Mexico's most important handicraft event has announced its return to Playas de Rosarito from Friday, September 6 to Monday, September 9 at Centro de Convenciones Baja California Center.

Expo TlaquepArte showcases a great assortment of products, including gastronomy that highlights the diversity and wealth of Mexican cuisine, especially from regions such as Oaxaca that are currently offering their highest quality products.

This event brights together more than 200 exhibitors and artisans all gathered in one place. Admission is free and these are some of the products that you'll find here:

Mezcal

Hearing the name of this drink takes us back to Oaxaca as it is a product made from agave, 100% handcrafted and whose origin is from pre-Hispanic Mexico.

At Expo TlaquepArte, you'll find mezcal creams with delicious flavors such as pistachio, pine nuts, almond, coconut, or cajeta.

You'll also be able to purchase mezcal juice, made from a mix of grape and cranberry.

Mole

One of Mexico's most representative and classic dishes is, without a doubt, mole. It has been made since the pre-Hispanic era and it has strong historic connotations.

Puebla native exhibitors will offer traditional mole with almonds and there will be many options that include sesame seeds, fruits, chocolate, and nuts.

Salsas

Mexican salsas are more than a simple garnish: they are the essence of Mexico's gastronomy, and there is a great diversity of flavors and styles that you'll find in almost any Mexican dish.

Prepare to try a variety of salsas made with dry fruit, seeds, and even the powerful habanero chili pepper. There's something for every taste!
