Busch Gardens Tampa Bay announced a partnership with Toma bringing their empanadas to this year’s Howl-O-Scream event.

This partnership will give guests the opportunity to enjoy these unique empanadas. Toma’s empanadas come with a reputation for spicy flavor. In an interesting scary twist, these empanadas will only be available for a limited time during the Howl-O-Scream event at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay
Toma was created to share the best of Latin cuisine with the world. It began with Sofia Vergara’s love for Latin food and her son Manolo Gonzalez Vergara’s passion for cooking. Together with well-respected hospitality executive Sam Nazarian they established Toma. This will be the first time this product has entered the Tampa market.

“I can’t wait for Toma to be available at Busch Gardens. It’s maybe even more exciting than their roller coasters! Toma is the perfect food for theme parks because it’s handheld, can be eaten quickly and is delicious – the perfect combination,” says Manolo Gonzalez Vergara.
“I am so excited that Toma will be available at Busch Gardens. I know people will love it – it’s fun and delicious food in the perfect, fun setting,” says Sofia Vergara.
