About Mulato Chiles / Acerca del Chile Mulato
Our Dried Mulato Chiles (Chile Mulato) are a dried variety of poblano — darker, sweeter, and more chocolatey than the common ancho. Mild heat (2,500–3,000 SHU) with notes of dried cherry, licorice, and unsweetened cocoa. The third member of the classic "mole trinity" alongside ancho and pasilla.
El chile mulato seco es la variedad oscura del chile poblano — más dulce, más profundo y con notas inconfundibles a chocolate y cereza pasa. Junto con el ancho y el pasilla forma la trinidad clásica del mole poblano y mole negro. Su sabor único no se puede sustituir.

Quick Tip / Tip rápido

Recipe Inspiration / Receta Sugerida — The Mole Trinity Base (Mulato + Ancho + Pasilla)
Ingredients (serves 8 — base for any mole): 6 mulato chiles • 4 ancho chiles • 2 pasilla chiles (all toasted, deveined & rehydrated) • 4 garlic cloves (roasted) • 1 white onion (roasted) • 2 tomatoes (roasted) • ¼ cup almonds + 2 tbsp pumpkin seeds (toasted) • 1 stick Mexican cinnamon • 4 cloves • 1 oz Mexican chocolate • 4 cups chicken broth • Salt & sugar to taste
Steps: 1) Toast and rehydrate all chiles 20 min. 2) Blend chiles with roasted veggies, nuts, spices and 2 cups broth in batches until very smooth. 3) Strain into a hot pot with 3 tbsp oil — fry the paste 10 min, stirring constantly. 4) Add remaining broth, chocolate, salt and a pinch of sugar. 5) Simmer 30–40 min stirring often, until thick and silky. Serve with shredded chicken, turkey or pork, sesame seeds, and warm tortillas.

How can I pay if I pick up in person?

En el almacén aceptamos efectivo y Zelle. Con tarjeta: haz tu pedido en línea, selecciona retiro en tienda y pásalo a recoger.
What is your return policy?
Because we sell fresh and perishable food in bulk, we accept returns in two situations:
- Quality defect attributable to us — product received spoiled or in unsuitable condition, an incorrect item shipped, or a product that doesn't match its description. We cover return shipping.
- Unopened product — if you change your mind, you may return any item still unopened, unused, and sealed in its original packaging exactly as we shipped it. Return shipping is at your cost.
Requests must be made within 3 days of receiving your order, with photos. If approved, you choose — a replacement or a full refund.
Aceptamos devoluciones por defecto de calidad atribuible a nosotros (cubrimos el flete) o por producto sin abrir y sellado (el flete corre por tu cuenta). Solicitud dentro de 3 días con fotos.

My order arrived damaged. What do I do?
Contact us within 24 hours with photos of the outer packaging and the product inside. All orders leave inspected and properly packed, so transit damage is the carrier's responsibility — but we'll help you file the claim, since the shipment is insured under our carrier account.
Contáctanos dentro de 24 horas con fotos del empaque y del producto. Te ayudamos a levantar el reclamo con el transportista.
Do you sell wholesale / in bulk?
That's most of what we do. We supply restaurants, bakeries, Mexican grocery stores, spice blenders, and foodservice distributors across the U.S. Most products are priced per pound, and the price drops as volume goes up.
El mayoreo es la mayor parte de lo que hacemos. Precios por libra que bajan al aumentar el volumen.
Browse our wholesale catalog → / Ver catálogo de mayoreo →
Do you offer payment terms?
Payment is due at the time of order. We don't currently offer net terms or credit accounts — this keeps our per-pound pricing as low as it is.
El pago es al momento del pedido. No manejamos crédito ni términos net.
How should I store my spices and dried fruit?
Keep everything in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once you open a bulk bag, transfer what you're not using into an airtight container. Whole spices hold their aroma far longer than ground. Dried fruit stays plump sealed; refrigeration extends shelf life in humid climates.
Guarda todo en un lugar fresco, seco y sin luz. Al abrir una bolsa, pasa lo demás a un recipiente hermético.
Are your products authentic Mexican?
We import directly and ship from the border at McAllen, Texas. Our Ceylon cinnamon is true cinnamon from Sri Lanka — not the harsher Cassia most U.S. supermarkets carry.
Importamos directo y enviamos desde McAllen, Texas. Nuestra canela es de Ceylán verdadera, no Cassia.
