Casa Museo del Dulce

Northern Central Highlands


This museum in the town's former sweet factory allows you to wander through kitchens of old, see exhibits about the history of Mexico, candy production and get a sugary hit in the form of the famous dulce de leche (a caramel-like concoction made by heating sweetened milk) bites themselves.
