For the past few weeks I have been trialing some new freeze-dried berry powders which I received from the lovely girls at Arctic Berries, a small company started by two best friends with a passion for helping you maintain an endless supply of berries! With the summer berry season coming to a natural end over here soon (sigh!), these little tubs of freeze-dried berries are going to become very handy. I love that the Arctic Berries products really are just fruit, pure and simple…it’s not so gimmicky and they’re actually just so useful to have in the kitchen, leaving aside the fact that yep they’re pretty darn healthy, too. This smoothie bowl recipe uses the blueberry powder, which you can read about here.
