Royal Berry: The real açaí from Brazil triumphs in Mar del Plata  

Many do not know it, but it has reached Mar del Plata the real açaí from Brazil, a dark-colored berry that grows in the palm trees of the Amazon, especially in the area of the neighboring country. But it does not do so in its "natural" state, but in an ice cream format made with the pulp of the fruit. It is not ice cream, but it does come in a frozen version sweetened with guarana syrup, which in turn can be mixed with ice creams of different flavors, sweet products such as candied chocolate or healthier combinations such as kiwi, strawberry or banana. This refreshing, healthy and celiac-friendly proposal is already a hit at Brazil, Spain, United States, Bolivia, Paraguay, Chile, Costa Rica and Colombia.. It is now taking its "first steps" in Argentina.

In Buenos Aires there are already several establishments that offer this service, but in Mar del Plata is still gathering momentum. Although it is doing so at a dizzying pace. All those who have passed through the premises of the Royal Berry franchise have repeated. They even ask for your products via Rappi or PedidosYa. 

The popularity of açaí is not surprising considering that it provides instant energy with a sweetened fruit and a frozen texture that has nutritional properties that we could never find in conventional ice cream (with a significant amount of added sugar). The açai is high in antioxidants, promotes cardiovascular health and is a natural immune system booster.. Y... It usually has 60 calories per 100 grams.. In other words, it is a healthy, refreshing, tasty option, suitable for vegans, vegetarians and coeliacs. We too wonder how we didn't know about it before. It is an excellent option for children, as it allows them to enjoy a sweet option without resorting to saturated fats or sweets with ample added sugar rates. 

Royal Berry offers a different proposal; Açaí by weight with irresistible combinations.

If the benefits of açaí were already enough to make us love the product, the proposal from Royal Berry that it is the one that fruit not forbidden we deserve from Monday morning to Sunday afternoon, as it is an option that many people choose both for breakfast and snacks (including pre and post workouts). The combinations that can be made with açaí are endless. You can have it with kiwi and granola, for example, or with liquid chocolate and condensed milk. For this reason, in Royal Berry sold by weight with a system autoservice in which you can choose the combinations you want. All you have to do is put on some gloves and choose from several options. They have healthy sections and other more tempting ones. We recommend the powdered milk and condensed milk to live the real Brazilian experience. It is possible to make combinations with glasses and bowls. 

Two stores in "La Feliz

For those who prefer "everything done", there are house specialties, also with healthy alternatives and others designed for those days when we want to leave the diet aside. For example, the option "Felicidade" with açaí, seasonal fruit, milky cream, brownie and chocolate sauceIn addition, they have a wide selection of prepared bowls, smoothies and sales by weight that you can take home to combine with whatever you want. You can see the full letter here.  

Waffles, truffles, pastries, specialty coffee and açaí

Royal Berry has two stores in Mar del Plata and both offer the same product, although the one in 1111 Patricio Peralta Ramos Av. also has several combinations wonderful sweet and savory waffle recipes. On the other hand, at its premises in Olavarria 3172 have added Astor pastry shop, as well as brigadeiro truffles that they make themselves.and will soon be joined by pistachio truffles.
