Proudly serving Arizona since 2011.

Our roots run deep. One of the first acai bowl shops in Arizona, built on a belief that real food should be easy to find. Fifteen years later, two shops, a food truck, and the same belief.

• Real Ingredients. Whole fruits, superfoods and quality you can taste.
• Made Fresh Daily. Every bowl and drink crafted to order.
• Women Led, Family Owned. Local, independent, and proud of it.
• Community Driven. Supporting local events and a healthy lifestyle.

Food you can feel good about.

• WHY OUR ACAI TASTES DIFFERENT. Because we actually blend it. While many acai bases come pre made and ready to scoop, or come from a soft serve machine full of additives, our acai is blended fresh to order along with whole frozen fruit, organic acai, pitaya and real fruit juice. It takes a couple of extra minutes. We think you're worth it. No shortcuts. Just real ingredients, blended fresh, and a bowl that tastes like it should.
• WHOLE FOOD INGREDIENTS. Real fruit, organic acai and pitaya, certified gluten free granola, real honey. Nothing artificial. If you cannot pronounce it, it is not going in your bowl.
• OUR OWN NUT BUTTERS. We make our peanut butter fresh daily, in house, from our own recipe, and we are not sharing it. The almond and pecan butters in the Chocolate Coconut and the Raspberry Pecan are natural, single ingredient butters.
• CUSTOM BLENDS ARE THE POINT. Tell us what you want and we build it. Swap the base, swap the juice, add a protein, drop a topping. Regulars have orders we know by heart.
• WE WORK AROUND YOUR DIETARY NEEDS. Everything we serve is gluten free, and any order can be made vegan. Please inform us of any allergies or sensitivities. We want you to feel safe enjoying every menu item.
• FAMILY OWNED SINCE 2011. Marcy and Brad Olsen still restock the shops and work the Fresche truck at farmers markets and events. This is not a franchise that got dropped into a strip mall.

Gluten Free, Made to Order.

Every bowl is gluten free already, granola included. Explore gluten-free.

Plant-Based & Powerful.

Swapping honey or whey protein makes any order vegan. Explore vegan options.

Breakfast, Lunch, Post Workout, Snack, Dessert

Made for every moment.

• Breakfast. We open at 8:00 AM. A bowl and a fresh juice beats a drive through.
• Post Workout. Add a scoop of whey or pea protein and you have a recovery meal that does not taste like a recovery meal.
• Lunch. A medium bowl is a full meal. Ask any of our regulars who eat one four days a week.
• Snack. A small bowl or a refrescher between meals, in and out in a few minutes.
• Dessert. Fruit, honey and dark chocolate. It is a treat you do not have to talk yourself into.

We bring Fresche to you.

The Fresche Truck has been rolling since 2016. We bring acai bowls, smoothies, cold brew and protein shakes to corporate events, school events, weddings, farmers markets and community gatherings, and everything on the truck can be made vegan or gluten free. Book the truck.

From one family's search for better food.

When the Olsens' youngest son started solid foods he broke out in eczema and rashes and stopped being himself. The answers they got were temporary fixes that never touched the cause, so they started researching on their own and changed how the family ate. The symptoms faded. That changed how Marcy and Brad thought about food for good, and it is the reason there is no artificial anything behind our counter. Read the whole story.

Frequently Asked

Do you make your own acai blends?

Yes. We blend every bowl to order from whole frozen fruit, organic acai or pitaya, and real juice. Most shops scoop a finished base straight into the cup or pull it from a soft serve machine. We blend ours to order with whole fruit and real juice.

Can I get a gluten free bowl?

Yes, and every bowl already is one. Everything we serve is gluten free, granola included, so there is nothing to ask for and nothing to leave off.

Can I get a bowl made vegan?

Every item on the menu can be made vegan. The two ingredients to watch are honey, which we drizzle on most bowls and can leave off, and whey protein, which swaps for a pea protein. Ask at the counter and we will build it.

Do you make your own peanut butter?

We do, fresh every day, from our own recipe, in house. The almond and pecan butters we use are natural, with nothing added.

Can you work around a food allergy?

Tell us what you are avoiding and we will build around it. We handle nut, dairy, soy and gluten requests every day, and we can swap the base, the juice, the milk, the protein and every topping.
