In the food industry, following market trends is super important. Therefore, due to the success that this fruit has had in recent times, it was necessary to follow this trend, hence our pitaya or dragon fruit cream.

Consequently, we call this behavior common to several consumers a trend, where a product starts to stand out, for example, the boom in sales, consumption and revenues with pitaya. Therefore, market trend is the indication of a way forward, and investing in pitaya cream is one of them.

Similar in some aspects to açaí, with intense color and flavor, a lot of freshness and also a lot of versatility. It is seen that the pitaya cream promises to be a success and to fall on the Brazilian palate, as happened with the purple fruit, but now in pink.

In addition to the popularity of being an exotic fruit, pitaya brings health benefits to the consumer, being rich in iron, vitamin c and other antioxidants. Above all, in our recipe it still has passion fruit aroma, the perfect and refreshing summer wedding.

Does açai have sugar?

Açaí tem açucar?

Learn information about the sugar levels in açaí cream and what it means about the food

First, it is important to highlight that after its popularization, the consumption of açaí changed a lot. So, if there in Pará it was a salty meal, in other regions of Brazil and around the world, it became popular in the sweet format. Thus, after being redesigned, açaí became a refreshing dessert, served in ice cream parlors, cafes and snack bars.

Therefore, it is a fact that the addition of sugar is part of the recipe. And with that, the sweet format is intentional to be compatible with the cream/sorbet. But, here we have differentials in these aspects with a guarantee of a tasty format and without harm to health.

So, we take into account that the presence of sugar doesn’t make it an unhealthy food, especially in our recipe. But why? Because these sugar calories also make acai an energy food. As a result, it’s´common for it to be consumed by athletes and people in the fitness industry, for example.

Therefore, at Açaí Town, the difference is an original recipe, where the much-feared guarana syrup common in the market is replaced by a proprietary formulation with selected ingredients.

Not only that, we have zero açaí in our catalog, without additional sugars. In this version, sucralose replaces the sugar. So, zero is an alternative to the traditional version, aimed at people on a sugar-restricted diet and diabetics, for example.

Thus, those who are diabetic can take açaí, and those who aren’t, do not need to be scared of the sugars in the formula. That said, issues that involve gaining weight or losing weight will depend on how açaí is consumed and, of course, on the ingredients that constitute and accompany it, and not only on the sugar in the recipe.

How many calories açai berry have?

Açaí Calorias

Açaí is considered an energy food precisely because of its high caloric density, do you know what this means in practice? Learn about the calories of açai “Açai Town”

First of all, that acai berry has antioxidant properties, cardioprotective fats, fiber and high energy value we always see around. However, few know what the amount of calories in açai it has to do with it.

By definition, calorie is a unit of measurement used to represent energy in the form of heat (thermal energy). Thus, the calorie unit, in the Kcal format, is used in food packaging to show the consumer the amount of energy that will be produced after ingestion.

Above all, we see that one of the main functions of food is to provide energy for the body’s maintenance. Since, calories are needed not only for the practice of physical activities, but also for the normal functioning of the organs.

Therefore, when measuring the energy of food by its amount of calories, we have the following: açaí “Açaí Town” has 103 kcal for every 100g (about 1 cup of açaí cream). According to this, if 100g of açaí are ingested, 103 kilocalories (Kcal) will be produced in the body.

These calories of açai refer to our pure product, with the ingredients carefully selected for its manufacture and transformation into sorbet/cream. Bearing in mind that the energy/calorie values can change according to the additions and accompaniments consumed together with the product.

Finally, we have the doubt about whether açaí is fattening or not. About this, it is a fact that when the individual ingests more calories than he consumes, his weight increases and when he consumes less than he needs, his weight decreases. Thus, each person has different energy needs according to age, sex and physical activities that they practice, and the diet must follow these individual standards.

Categorias: Padrão EN

This common question that travels the internet and leaves those who want to add açaí to the diet in doubt, has finally been clarified. Find out now if açaí cream is fattening or not and what is different about Açaí Town.

Come on, before knowing if acai is fattening, it is important to know thatin general the açaí before anything is a super fruit, what would that be?

Super fruit is what is called a category of fruits that concentrate an enormous amount of vitamins, minerals, characteristics and properties capable of providing a series of benefits to our organism, and assist in the prevention of diseases.

Açaí falls into this category, as it is rich in vitamins, potassium, magnesium, fibers and high antioxidant power, in addition to iron and calcium. Because of this, if consumed in a moderate way it becomes an important ally in diets and a great option for a healthy life, therefore, it can be inserted in the diet because it is a complete food.

But the main question, is he keeping you fit or making you fat? Açaí itself is not fattening if consumed correctly, the main villains in some cases are guarana syrup which is sometimes added to açaí cream and of course, side dishes such as condensed milk, powdered milk,peanut butter, chocolate and other added treats to the product.

And that is where the Açaí Town differentials come in. Our product is manufactured without this traditional guarana syrup, the one that brings sugars and more calories to the açaí cream formula and can impact the health of consumers. We, valuing the quality of our product, have in our recipe our own formulation with selected ingredients that replace the syrup.

Therefore, we can say that our açaí cream does not make you fat if consumed in moderation, since the important thing is not to overdo the amount. Since it can even be an ally in healthy diets and brings countless benefits for high-performance athletes. So, to get the benefits of açaí, experts say that the ideal is to consume 100g to 200g a day.

And of course, what will measure the highest calorie content of the product is what comes with it, opting for fruits instead of the villains of the diet and healthy eating, also known as treats, the caloric index will be much lower, for example.

Now that you have discovered that açaí does not make you fat if consumed in moderation and that Açaí Town has a differential in our formulation.
