Açaí

The power berry from the Amazon is conquering Europe: açaí bowls are the fastest-growing frozen concept, and with a Gelmatic machine you serve them at the touch of a button.

Açaí
01

The trend from Brazil

Açaí has long been more than a superfood trend: the creamy frozen berry base, served with granola, fresh fruit and toppings, is an everyday staple in Brazil and is growing at double-digit rates in Europe, at breakfast, at lunch and as a healthy alternative to classic ice cream.

For food service operators açaí is an attractive additional business: high margins, year-round demand and a young, brand-conscious target group.

02

Perfect texture at the touch of a button

Açaí mix behaves differently from dairy ice cream: the high fruit content calls for gentle processing. Gelmatic machines with a gravity system move the mix through the cylinder without pressure, even with small pieces of fruit, and deliver that typically dense, spoonable consistency.

Drawn fresh portion by portion instead of pre-portioned from the freezer: faster service, less waste, consistent quality.

03

One concept, many points of sale

Whether juice bar, gym, café or beach kiosk, a compact countertop unit is enough to get started. If you also offer soft serve or frozen yogurt, you simply change the mix and open up a further concept with the same machine.
