Show your family some taco love by creating taco cups with ground beef flavored with any one of our Williams Tacos Seasonings. Make it fun for everyone by having an array of toppings for each person to customize their own.

These taco cups use flour tortillas pressed into muffin tins and filled with seasoned ground beef made with Williams Taco Seasoning, black beans, and cheese for individual tacos that bake until crispy. The taco seasoning creates authentic Mexican flavor while the cup format eliminates taco mess and creates perfect portions.
