DENVER — Just in time for the holidays, Denver's iconic pink palace has released Christmas-themed merchandise that includes hoodies, coasters, key chains, skis, snowboards, salsa – and even a candle that smells like fresh sopapillas.
El Mercado at Casa Bonita offers almost anything for the CB lover in your life. The items range in price from $3.95 to $1,249.
Some of the more unique items include beach towels adorned with images that will help you reminisce. There's a diver beach towel that showcases the entertainment restaurant's famous cliff divers and a rainbow parrot towel set that showcases the restaurant's tropical interior.
Four featured collections include the Christmas Collection, Ski Collection, Made in Colorado and the yummy Sopapilla Collection.
For avid skiers and snowboarders, take a look at the limited edition custom skis and snowboards made in partnership with Denver-based Meier Skis and featuring the artwork of renowned concert poster artist Matt Leunig. If your heart's set on swooshing down the slopes representing Casa Bonita, you'd better hurry because there are only 500 pairs available for purchase.
They didn't forget the pets, offering CB-themed collars, bandanas and a food bowl.
A look inside Casa Bonita
Along with a building makeover, the restaurant received a menu makeover by three-time James Beard award-nominated restaurateur and head chef Dana Rodriguez. The new and improved sauces and salsas are offered for sale. The recipes have been crafted by Rodriguez, a Chihuahua, Mexico native.
Try the special edition hot sauce 3-pack or the Salsa Loca, Green Chili, Muy Hot Sauce, Enchilada Sauce or Mole Rojo.
For the adults, the cocktails mixers for sale run $14.95 and include a margarita mixer, Paloma mixer, green bloody Maria and the Michelada mixer.
The iconic Lakewood restaurant has received $12 million in extensive renovations since "South Park" creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone bought it for $3.1 million in September 2021.
The focus of the renovation of Casa Bonita has been “change nothing, improve everything.”
