Fruit Purees and Refresher Bases for Coffee Shops


Strawberry acai and mango dragon fruit refreshers are now some of the most popular drinks on any cafe menu. Most cafes build them from syrups. Making them with real fruit purees and IQF fruit gives a brighter flavor, a better color and a cleaner ingredient list you can put on the menu.
Fruit purees and pieces that add real fruit flavor and color to iced refresher drinks.
Strawberry, mango and berry that mix into lemonades and iced teas with no cutting.
Frozen fruit for muffins, scones and loaves that holds its shape in the oven.

Frozen purée is whole fruit blended smooth and frozen, ready to pour into beverages, frozen desserts and sauces without any cutting or prep. It delivers full fruit flavor and color in a consistent, easy to dose form.
Patagonia Foods supplies frozen purées for beverage, dairy, dessert and baby food manufacturers. Brix, pH and other specs are available on request.

IQF 3/8 inch diced is cut to a tight, even cube so it distributes evenly through batters, doughs, yogurt and fruit preparations. The small size thaws quickly and holds its shape through mixing.
Manufacturers use diced fruit when they need consistent piece size from batch to batch. Patagonia Foods can supply diced product to your spec, with size tolerances documented on request.

IQF chunks are peeled, cut into consistent bite-size pieces and frozen one by one, so they pour loose from the bag instead of freezing into a block. Operators can portion exactly what a recipe needs and return the rest to the freezer.
Patagonia Foods packs IQF chunks close to harvest at origin, which locks in color, flavor and texture. Chunks are our most popular format for smoothie chains, foodservice and private label retail programs.

IQF half sliced product is halved and then sliced, giving smaller, consistent pieces that spread evenly through a recipe. Pieces stay loose in the bag for easy portioning.
It is a practical middle ground between whole and diced cuts for bakery, beverage and sauce applications.

IQF fruit ships in 10, 20 and 30 lb cases, and you can mix fruits and case sizes on the same pallet. Purees, acai and smoothie packs ship in their own pack sizes, shown when you open each format above.
We source each fruit where it grows best and buy from more than one origin, so a short crop in one country doesn't hold up your orders. Our own teams in Mexico, Peru and Vietnam work directly with the growers.
A refresher base is usually fruit, juice and water blended with a sweetener and a little acid. Start with mango or dragon fruit puree, add acai puree for depth, and finish with IQF strawberry or dragon fruit pieces for inclusions customers can see in the cup. We can share starting ratios with your beverage team.
Purees pour straight into the pitcher and IQF fruit portions loose from the bag, so there is no cutting or washing behind the bar. Frozen storage means no spoiled fruit at the end of the week.
Typically fruit juice or puree, water, a sweetener and acid, with strawberry and acai for flavor and color. Using real acai puree and IQF strawberries gives a fresher taste than syrups alone.
Yes. Mango puree and dragon fruit puree are the core of the drink, and IQF dragon fruit chunks work as inclusions.
Our strawberries are supplied IQF (whole, sliced and diced). Many cafes blend IQF strawberries into their base or use them as inclusions. Ask our team if you need a ready-made strawberry puree and we will check current options.
Most items start at one pallet per item, and you can mix items. Single cafes often buy through a local distributor, and we can point you to one.
Keep purees frozen until needed, then thaw in the refrigerator. Once thawed, follow the shelf life on the spec sheet for that item.
