Repeat customers, and the fact that they make a good product, keeps Raspados el Paraiso, one of only a handful of raspado shops on Tucson’s east side, busy during the pandemic.

The family-owned shop, which has been selling raspados, Tostilocos and other Mexican delights for the last five years, is one of only a handful of raspado shops on the east side of town. In 2020, the shop opened a second location at 7701 E. Golf Links Road.
