Fresh, flavorful and handcrafted treats for events, parties and special moments. From our famous tamarind apples to signature snack carts, we bring joy to every celebration.
Melinis started back in 2012 while being a single mom with 3 children. What began as a simple way to earn extra income quickly transformed into a growing catering business. During school, work and daily responsibilities, a vision came at a gathering: offering flavored apples to the community. From there, my children and I began knocking on doors to sell apples so that my daughter could participate in her 6th grade activities.
What started as a small routine became a daily commitment. We gained loyal followers and dedicated clients. During the pandemic, Melinis side hustle expanded rapidly, bringing in catering orders for parties and events. Today, we proudly serve major events, business corporations, schools where we give back a percentage and concerts in amphitheaters.
At Melinis Catering, we offer a variety of toppings including our famous apples and mangos covered in tamarind. We bring freshness to every taste. Our authentic corn is cooked the same day and sliced straight from the cob for delicious esquites. This cart brings the true Melinis vibe through a mix of flavors and snacks.
