About Dona Maria
Doña María is Mexico's number one mole brand, beloved for over 80 years for its authentic mole pastes that bring the rich, complex flavours of traditional Mexican cuisine to kitchens worldwide. Now part of MegaMex Foods (a joint venture including Hormel), Doña María specialises in world-famous mole pastes and tender Nopalitos, making authentic Mexican cooking accessible to home cooks everywhere. The signature Doña María mole is made with rich, flavourful ingredients including fiery ancho chiles, pasilla chiles, peanuts, chocolate, and a blend of traditional Mexican spices and seeds. This slow-cooked combination creates the smooth, complex flavour profile that has made it the best-selling mole brand in both Mexico and the United States. The classic red mole pairs perfectly with chicken, beef, and pork, adding just the right amount of heat and depth to create memorable meals. Mole sauce represents one of Mexican cuisine's greatest achievements - a dark, velvety sauce traditionally prepared over many hours with dried chiles, nuts, vegetables, chocolate, and aromatic spices. It's the centrepiece of celebrations and special occasions throughout Mexico. Doña María makes this treasured tradition accessible: simply mix four portions of water or broth with one portion of mole paste to create authentic Mexican mole without the lengthy preparation. UK shoppers seeking authentic Mexican ingredients can find Doña María products in the world foods section of supermarkets and specialty food shops. Varieties include classic red mole and Mole Verde (made with pumpkin seeds and milder in heat). Compare Doña María prices on Grocefully to find the best deals on this authentic Mexican brand.
