While this blog post merely scratches the surface of what's possible with these beautiful tropical bowls, we hope it sparks your creativity and gives you the know-how to create your own acai masterpiece.
What Is An Acai Bowl?
Part smoothie, part art, an acai (ah-sigh-EE) bowl is an antioxidant-rich snack that's topped with nourishing whole foods and served "cereal style" (bowl+spoon). The smoothie base is typically frozen acai puree (or acai powder) blended with fruit and a bit of coconut milk to create a thick, “scoopable” texture.
Topping this super-smoothie is the best part - keep it simple with some bananas and nuts or create a one-of-a-kind motif with fresh fruit, almonds, cacao nibs and a drizzle of honey. Enticing, good for you and satisfying.
Half the fun of these bowls is experimenting with flavors and textures, and the other half is assembling them into a beautiful design. If you've ever wanted to try your hand at the art of food presentation, here's your chance!
