Some FAQ about Lucho Dillitos Bars

Is it suitable for vegetarians or vegans? Yes they are. Our range of 3 flavours of bocadillo's only have 4 ingredients, guava and sugar are in all of them and the with raspberry also has raspberry and with coffee also has coffee.

Do I eat the leaf? We wouldn't recommend it!, but it is unlikely to cause you any harm.

Will they melt in my pocket? Lucho Dilitos used Hong Kong as the test market, with temperatures over 30ºC and 90% humidity. Even if the leaf wrapper gets a bit wet ;the Bocadillo will remain intact.

How long do they last? Lucho Dillitos are essentially a preserve, like jam. They do not go off under normal storage conditions. They put a year from manufacture as the sell by date, the date is on the label on the box, but they are edible past this time. As they get older they will slowly get harder and start to dry out. To maximise freshness and keep your bocadillo as soft as possible we recommend storing them in an airtight container.
