Second Austin Location GRAND OPENING for San Antonio-based DELICIOUS TAMALES! Service Starts March 2nd in North Austin Everyone is invited to the DELICIOUS TAMALES Ribbon Cutting and Grand Opening at Noon on Thursday, March 2, 2023, as DELICIOUS TAMALES, the largest San Antonio producer of tamales, opens a second location at 1700 W. Parmer Lane near Metric Blvd. That’s great news for residents in North Austin, Wells Branch, Pflugerville, Round Rock, Cedar Park, and other communities north of the Capitol City. “Since we opened our first Austin location a little over a year ago at 1931 E. Oltorf, the response has been overwhelming, and customers have been asking us to open another location to the North,” said owner and President of DELICIOUS TAMALES, Valerie Gonzalez. She added, ”After months of searching and several more months of construction, we are excited to begin providing families and businesses to the North with a more convenient location to buy fresh, authentic tamales all year round.” Everyone is invited to a Ribbon-Cutting and Grand Opening hosted by the Greater Austin Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and DELICIOUS TAMALES at 12 PM, Thursday, March 2, 2023. Delicious Tamales’ owners, Valerie Gonzalez and Herlinda-Lopez-Wood are a mother-daughter duo who began providing tamales for friends and family primarily at Christmas time and have since grown it into a thriving business that offers 13 flavors year-round from its six locations in San Antonio and now two in Austin. The company employs approximately 40 people, many of whom have worked with them for more than 30 years. Closely monitored operations take place daily in a 30,000 square foot kitchen at 1330 Culebra Rd. in San Antonio. Here fresh ingredients, with no preservatives, are used in the labor-intensive process that starts with corn that is stone-ground and cooked daily to make 1,800 pounds of masa. Authentic corn husks are used to “hand-wrap” the various fillings including the traditional pork and chicken as well as vegetarian tamales. All flavors are gluten-free except for the sweet ones which are made with cake flour. Fresh tamales are cooked daily at each location and can be purchased hot and ready to eat or frozen to heat and serve later. DELICIOUS TAMALES also provides nationwide shipping and delivery is available through UberEats, Door Dash, and GrubHub. Giving back to the community is a mayor commitment of the DT familia. Over the years, it has been involved with numerous nonprofits including the Santa Run, Blue Santa, las Posadas staged by Our lady of the Lake University in San Antonio. Every quarter excess inventory is donated to the food bank in San Antonio and to First Responders during the pandemic. In Austin, DT donated product to the Holiday Las Posadas event benefitting Con Mi Madre and to Las Posadas benefitting the River City Youth Organization in Dove Springs. In addition, DT provides tamales to nonprofit partners who in turn sell them for their holiday fundraisers. Such partners include student athletic and performance teams, Manos de Cristo, and the UT Hispanic Faculty and Staff Association.
