Flour Tortillas – Pressed and Hand stretched
Flour Tortillas and Wraps
Our flour tortillas come in many flavors and sizes, hand stretched and pressed.
Hand Stretched Tortillas
Hand stretched tortillas are the traditional style of Mexican tortillas. These tortillas, prized for being thin, are the tortillas commonly used in Mexican restaurants for burritos. They are not very pliable unless heated. Hand stretched tortillas are perfect for fried salad bowls, quesadillas and chimichangas since they do not puff or blister as much as a pressed tortilla when fried.
Our flour hand stretched tortillas are available in 6”, 8”, 10” and 12” sizes.
Pressed Tortillas
Pressed Tortillas are thicker than hand stretched tortillas and very pliable. The ability to roll them without cracking makes them the preferred tortilla for wraps. They are also great for quesadillas and burritos due to their pliability and ease of use.
Our flour pressed tortillas are available in 4.5”, 6’, 8”, 10”, 12” and 14” sizes.
Whole wheat pressed tortillas are available in 6”, 8”, 10”, 12”and 14” sizes.

Storing and Handling Flour Tortillas
Abuelita flour tortillas are shipped frozen allowing the operator to pull and thaw the tortillas as needed.
- Store in your freezer for up to 12 months, in a refrigerator for 2 months or room temperature for 30-45 days. (Please check label on box for specifics.)
- Let tortillas thaw in fridge overnight before use, room temperature is even better.
- Pressed tortillas can be rolled as cold as 50 degrees but work best when around 95 – 100 degrees.
- Never microwave flour tortillas to thaw.
- Use our re-sealable bags to keep fresh.
This is a guideline for optimal conditions.
