Piñatas from Mexicolore
A giant Mexican piñata, made by Mexicolore
At Mexicolore we have been making authentic Mexican piñatas for nearly 40 years (an article in the Times Educational Supplement featured one of our piñatas in a primary school in London on 25th December 1981! - see pic at bottom of page...)
NEW! NEW! NEW! We’re motoring with our new piñata range! Click on our brand new piñatas website (see ‘Hot Tip’, left) to see the beautiful new piñatas we’ve been making...
We aim to keep a stock of traditional Mexican star-shaped piñatas for sale ‘off the shelf’. We are now (2014) taking the making of custom/bespoke piñatas seriously to heart: look on our new specialist piñata website (link in the Hot Tip above) and feast your eyes on some amazing shapes!
And when we say ‘large’ we mean large: our standard ‘large’ stars are around a metre across the cones. You can specify particular colours for your piñata - all part of our service.
By special arrangement our piñatas can be personalised with names and even corporate logos, though there’s an extra charge for this.
Though normally supplied unfilled, piñatas can be filled - wrapped sweets are ideal for children, and we can suggest several Mexican novelty items for grown-ups.
Whilst piñatas must rank as one of the only toys in the world deliberately made to be broken, they can simply be hung as beautiful centrepieces. Whatever the occasion, we should be able to provide you with a festive piñata to suit...
The quickest way to find out about our piñatas is to ring us on 020 7622 9577 (London) or to email us at info@mexicolore.co.uk.
We’ll email you more information together with some sample photos.
And remember, our piñatas are the real thing!

Pinatas are the most amazing item i have ever seen. i love the way they just hang there and look so cute. I love smacking them until they fall down to the ground and the sweets spill out

Just a little cultural explanation to all those non Spanish speakers...we are Latins proud of our own culture and although we speak spanish we are not related with Spain at all since more than 200 years.
But it is definitely a fact....once you have enjoy a pinata....you just cant get enough of just one!!
its very funny!!!
We had them for birthdays, weddings, pastorelas, etc... Lots of fun inside of those colourful boxes of joy.
