Pro Tips from Real Stockists
Want to serve acai like some of the most successful cafés in Australia? Here are a few tried-and-true tips from venues already doing it right—whether you’re just getting started or looking to elevate your existing offering:
1. Make It Visual
Acai bowls are as much about the look as the flavour. Think bright, colourful toppings like strawberries, mango, kiwi, puffed quinoa, and edible flowers. A well-styled bowl catches eyes over the counter and photographs beautifully for social media—driving organic word of mouth.
2. Cross-Sell With Coffee or Smoothies
Bundle your acai bowl with a flat white or green smoothie to encourage higher spend and boost perceived value. Many cafés are now offering ‘breakfast sets’ that include a bowl and drink, which increases margin and makes ordering easier for customers in a rush.
3. Keep It Simple and Efficient
Acai doesn’t have to complicate your workflow. Scoopable or soft serve formats let you serve quickly without needing a blender or extra prep space. This is ideal for high-volume cafés, takeaway kiosks, or venues with compact kitchens.
4. Promote the Story Behind the Bowl
Customers love transparency—especially when it comes to health food. Let them know where your acai comes from, how it’s sourced, and why you’ve chosen Nectar Fruits. Whether it’s on your menu, chalkboard, or socials, highlighting sustainability and quality helps build trust and loyalty.
Acai Bowls That Sell Themselves
From bustling beachside kiosks to local favourites in the suburbs, Nectar Fruits is helping cafés create acai offerings that are not only delicious but deeply profitable.
With 50–70% profit margins depending on format, acai bowls can easily become your top-selling item. Plus, they appeal to a wide range of dietary preferences—vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free, and refined sugar-free.
