The benefits of the Coco bowls
As the açaï bowls, coco bowls are made of fruits and are a source of vitamins. For this reason, they are much healthier than a chocolate ice cream and can satisfy your sugar craving. This delicious and pretty smoothie is the perfect snack for a Sunday morning sugar rush!

Let’s face it, preparing an açaï bowl is already a bit of a struggle considering than the berries are not so easy to find. If on the top of it, you need to have a coconut in your fridge for breakfast, it start being a full day activity.
Moreover, have you ever tried to open a coconut? Good luck with that. A few businesses actually found a convenient alternative, they sell coco bowls. Please understand a manufactured bowl made from a coconut. It is actually a clever idea and can make the job if you want an OK picture.

Our conclusion
We love coco bowls, they are delicious and they look great. It feels like you have breakfast in the Bahamas. Or in LA, the original city of the concept. But we want this bowl to remain a great experience, a special treat on sunny Sundays. Indeed it is not realistic to have it everyday for breakfast. At first, because it is not so easy to prepare and then because it is actually not so healthy if you look at the sugar intake. What do you think?
