Jibarito de la Cajita on Aquí Pa' Ti
Puerto Rican Christmas has a special magic, and much of it lies in our traditions.
Amanda Rodríguez, spokesperson for Jibarito de la Cajita, represented us on the TeleOnce program Aquí Pa' Ti, with host Jailene Cintrón. There, she spoke about how our brand was born and the new characters from Época de Encantos.
Six years preserving our culture
The idea for Jibarito de la Cajita came six years ago, with the desire to preserve our culture and our traditions. The most beautiful thing has been the support of the public and how families have welcomed the stories, the characters, and the plush toys at every table.
A little piece of ours, for all ages
Although children are the ones who approach the characters first, adults enjoy them too. For those who do not live in Puerto Rico, a plush toy is a reminder of our traditions, of grandma, and of the people who lived them with us.
That is why Época de Encantos is an invitation to share something at Christmas that is worth giving and that lasts forever. Pan Sobao is a little snack for children to enjoy, and with the bacalaíto, mofongo, and Yuca and Masa pasteles, every family finds its favorite. There is even peace at the table, because pasteles can be had with or without ketchup.
So grandparents and parents can keep planting the seeds
Our characters help grandparents, fathers, and mothers start conversations and plant our traditions in the hearts of children. Jibarito represents that Puerto Rican from yesteryear, and in La Lata del Abuelo, a story available in Spanish and English, grandparents can tell how they used to play with a can.
