The Ratón Pérez box La Despensa de Palacio holds a little world inside: a marzipan «cheese» coated in chocolate, just like the one the famous Spanish tooth mouse loves, almond and cereal dragées and chocolate animal figures.
A 220 g box inspired by the character who collects baby teeth and leaves a surprise in exchange.

Tasting Ratón Pérez box
The marzipan «cheese» is the star: sweet, tender almond under a layer of chocolate. The dragées add the crunch of cereal and toasted almond, and the animal figures are pure fun for the little ones.
It is a box made to be discovered slowly, piece by piece.
Estepa, a town of confectioners
La Despensa de Palacio makes its sweets in Estepa, in the Seville countryside, a town whose name has been tied for centuries to confectioners’ workshops, toasted sugar and the scent of almonds drifting out of kitchens when the cold arrives.
That inherited craft shows in every piece: patient recipes, carefully made boxes and a way of seeing sweets as a small luxury to share.
How to enjoy Ratón Pérez box
- To leave under the pillow.
- As a special snack.
- As a birthday present.
It is the perfect gift on the night a tooth falls out: the tooth mouse leaves the box and the morning begins with a sweet surprise. Grown-ups, however, tend to ask for their share of marzipan too.
The 220 g box
