Dessert Tortillas

Turn An Everyday Tortilla Into An Innovative Dessert “Wrap”

Thanks to the folks at Tumaro’s, we’ll never look at a tortilla the same way again. Try gourmet dessert tortillas as a fun and tasty dessert for children and adults alike. Dessert wraps like Ice Cream Wrap, Chocolate Cheesecake Wrap and Apple Cinnamon Pie Wrap are easy to make, and guaranteed crowd-pleasers.

If you can’t find the dessert-flavored tortillas at your local grocer, you can use plain tortillas. For a local retailer, e-mail Tumaro’s. Read our full review of Tumaro’s Tortillas.
