I first tried acai bowls when I was out in America, and they became my new favorite thing! I would eat them for any meal of the day. Now I am back in the UK where we do not get acai berries and acai powder can be quite hard to get your hands on. So I decided to come up with an acai bowl substitute.

Do I have to use bananas in acai bowls?

So a lot of people substitute acai berries for frozen bananas and frozen berries including blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries. The only issue is bananas are not everyone’s favourite fruit. But do not worry! You do not need bananas in your bowl to duplicate the acai look or taste.

Becuase the fruit is frozen when it goes in the blender, I like to let it melt a tiny bit before I pop it in as I have has my blender break before when it tries to blend ice!

Will my acai bowl taste different without the powder?

Of course, without the acai in your bowl, it will taste slightly different to the original bowls that include acai. But the bowl you create will definitely be just as good so no need to worry about that!

Where can I get acai powder from?

If like me, you really wanted to get your hands on the acai powder, then check out the best acai powders I have found so far! They are all slightly different in price but they all do the job! Etsy has lots of different buyers selling acai powder so be sure to take a look.
