The blast occurred on Monday night in San Isidro, Chilchotla, during preparations for a local festival next week.
"A group of people lived in the house where the pyrotechnic material was stored for use in the festivities.
A firework launched by someone outside the house fell on top of the fireworks, causing the explosion that k**cked down the home," the government of Puebla said in a statement.
Nine people were killed on the spot and five more died after being taken to nearby hospitals.
Earlier, 30 people were reported injured.
A senior official in the Puebla state government, Diodoro Carrasco, told a local radio station that despite state laws on storing fireworks it was difficult to prevent these types of accidents.
A ****** of massive explosions destroyed a fireworks market outside the Mexican capital in December, killing at least 35 people, injuring dozens and leaving the market a charred wasteland.
