03 / THERE’S A STORY IN EVERY SPOONFUL
A little berry.
Deep roots.
Before the breakfast bowls and the colourful toppings, there was açaí in the Amazon. Its story starts with the people who have grown, harvested and eaten it for generations.
Rooted in the Amazon.
Açaí grows on palms and produces small, deep-purple fruit. It has long been an important food for Indigenous peoples and river communities in the Brazilian Amazon — a daily staple, long before it became an international trend.
More than a sweet bowl.
In northern Brazil, açaí has a place alongside savoury meals, including fish and cassava flour. The chilled, fruit-topped bowls many of us know today are one expression of a much broader food culture.
From local tables to the world.
Demand expanded across Brazil and into international markets, bringing açaí to juice bars and bowl menus far beyond the Amazon. Behind that popularity are communities whose livelihoods and traditions remain connected to the fruit.

04 / A LITTLE PURPLE GOODNESS
What’s in
the purple?
Deep purple fruit, naturally occurring plant compounds and a whole world of colourful toppings. Here’s why we love making açaí part of your day.
THE COLOUR
Purple with purpose.
Açaí’s deep purple colour comes with anthocyanins: naturally occurring plant compounds studied for their antioxidant activity. A beautiful little part of what makes this Amazonian fruit special.

THE FRUIT
More to the mix.
There’s more to this berry than its colour. Açaí pulp contains naturally occurring fats, including the monounsaturated fat oleic acid — another reason to get to know the fruit behind your bowl.
What researchers measured
THE WHOLE BOWL
Good things together.
Juicy fruit. Golden granola. A little nut butter or coconut. Bring colour, crunch and variety to your day with a bowl full of ingredients you love.

MAX + ERINTHE PEOPLE BEHIND THE PURPLE.
05 / MADE BY US. SHARED WITH YOU.
Two people.
One purple box.
A little bit of Rio.
A whole lot of heart.
We’re Max and Erin. Erin grew up experiencing açaí culture in Rio, and we wanted to bring something of that fresh, colourful experience to the UK’s festivals and events.
So, alongside university and a full-time job, we took a horsebox that needed a lot of love and rebuilt it ourselves. From the renovation to the menu and the little details, this is a business we’ve put our own hands into.
Now we’re taking it out into the world — serving bowls, pouring coffee and meeting lovely people along the way.
See you at the hatch,Max & Erin ♡
