COOKING TIPS
In the kitchen.

- 2Break the frozen pack into smaller chunks before adding to a high-powered blender to ensure a smoother consistency and reduce strain on the motor.

- 4Use as a base for smoothies, sorbets, or as a natural, vibrant purple food coloring for chia pudding, oatmeal, or baked goods.
STORAGE

FAQ

How many calories, carbs, and fat are in frozen unsweetened acai puree?
Per 100g, frozen unsweetened acai puree contains approximately 70 calories. It has about 4.5g of carbohydrates, 1.2g of protein, and 5.5g of fat, making it relatively low in carbs and a good source of healthy fats.
How do you prepare and use frozen unsweetened acai puree?
Frozen acai puree is typically blended with other fruits, liquids (like plant-based milk or juice), and sometimes sweeteners to create acai bowls or smoothies. For an acai bowl, blend until thick, then top with granola, fresh fruit, or nuts. It's best to break the frozen block into smaller pieces before blending.
What does frozen unsweetened acai puree taste like?
Unsweetened acai puree has a unique, earthy flavor often described as a cross between berries and chocolate, with a slightly tart and subtle bitterness. It's less sweet than most fruits, which is why it's often blended with sweeter ingredients or a touch of sweetener.
How should I store frozen unsweetened acai puree and how long does it last?
Frozen unsweetened acai puree should be stored in the freezer at 0°F (-18°C) or below. When stored properly, it can last for up to 12-18 months, maintaining its quality and nutritional value. Once thawed, it should be used immediately and not refrozen.
What is the difference between unsweetened and sweetened acai puree?
The primary difference is the addition of sugar. Unsweetened acai puree contains only the natural sugars from the acai berry, offering a more tart and earthy flavor profile. Sweetened versions have added sugars, often cane sugar or fruit juice, which significantly increases their calorie and carbohydrate content.
