Lacasitos chocolate lentils

Lacasitos are one of the most iconic confectionery products in Spain, consisting of small chocolate lenses coated in a colorful sugar shell. They were first launched in 1982 by the company Chocolates Lacasa, building on a long family tradition of chocolate making that dates back to the mid-19th century.

Today, Lacasitos continue to be manufactured primarily at the Lacasa Group's facilities in Utebo (Zaragoza), Spain. The brand has expanded internationally but remains under the strict quality control and ownership of the original founding family through their group, maintaining its heritage as a classic European sweet.

The Lacasa Group is a significant player in the Spanish food industry, managing various brands including Conguitos and Mentolín. As a family-owned business, it has resisted the wave of multinational acquisitions, ensuring that the brand's headquarters and ultimate ownership remain firmly rooted in Spain.
