About
Doña Cholita is a Northern Rivers maker of authentic Mexican corn products, working out of a unit on Kite Crescent in South Murwillumbah. Its core lines are organic corn tortillas and totopos (corn tortilla chips), made the traditional way through nixtamalisation — cooking and steeping the corn before grinding — for genuine flavour and texture. The products are certified organic, non-GMO and gluten free.
Founded by Jefte and Joey Juarez, the business has grown from a local kitchen into a wholesale supplier whose tortillas and chips are sold and served in more than 650 stores, cafes and restaurants around Australia. It is primarily a food manufacturer rather than a walk-in shopfront, so it's best to contact ahead about stockists, wholesale or pick-up.
