And with more people opting for brunch, foodservice businesses are seeing a huge opportunity to serve something new, creative, and exciting.
How to maximise the brunch trend?

Wholesale: Frozen fruit is an item that delivers all year long. It is a cost-effective option compared to fresh fruit, which can spoil quickly or be subject to price fluctuations. By offering frozen fruit, you’re giving your customers an affordable, high-quality product that’s ready for use in smoothies, baked goods, salads, and much more.
Retail: Help customers create their own brunches at home with frozen fruit bundles or curated brunch packs. These packs could include combinations of frozen fruit for smoothie bowls, pancake toppings, or fruit-infused cocktails. Offering recipe cards or ideas could inspire them to get creative with the ingredients.
