Question 1

What is açaí and what are its health benefits?

Accepted Answer

Açaí (pronounced ah-sigh-ee) is a small, dark purple berry native to the Amazon Rainforest in South America. It contains 10 times more antioxidants than blueberries and is widely regarded as one of the world's most nutrient-dense superfoods.

At An Açaí Affair, we serve açaí as a frozen bowl — a thick, creamy blend of pure açaí pulp topped with fresh fruits, granola, nuts and superfoods. The texture is similar to ice cream or sorbet, but it is completely organic, vegan and far lower in sugar.

Unlike most açaí brands in Singapore, we do not dilute our açaí with guarana syrup, apple juice concentrate, or any artificial sweeteners. This means our bowls have the highest açaí concentration available in Singapore — giving you the full nutritional benefit of the berry in every bowl.

Question 2

Is An Açaí Affair halal certified?

Accepted Answer

An Açaí Affair is not halal certified, but we are halal-friendly. Our kitchens do not handle pork, lard, or alcohol, and our açaí itself is halal certified. Muslim customers can enjoy our menu with confidence. For specific ingredient queries, contact us at hello@anacaiaffair.com.

As of 2026, An Açaí Affair operates 18 outlets across Singapore including 313 Somerset, Northpoint City, Waterway Point, Katong, and Jewel Changi. Beyond Singapore, we have a master franchise agreement signed in India, as well as a new outlet coming soon in Bali, Indonesia.

Our standard granola contains honey and is not vegan, but vegan granola is available for an extra $1. Drizzles that are not vegan: honey, pistachio sauce and chocolate hazelnut sauce. The chocolate whey protein smoothie add-on is also not vegan.

Question 5

Question 6

Are An Açaí Affair's products gluten-free?

Accepted Answer

Most of our products are gluten-free. However, our kitchens handle various ingredients and we cannot guarantee the absence of cross-contact with allergens. Customers with severe gluten intolerance or coeliac disease should exercise caution and inform our staff before ordering.

Question 7

Do you have low-sugar or low-calorie options?

Accepted Answer

If you're aiming to keep your sugar or calorie intake as low as possible, we recommend opting for the DIY bowl and selecting just the açaí base, or a combination of açaí and our sugar-free chia pudding or yogurt. Top it with berries like blueberries and strawberries, and skip the drizzle for the cleanest, leanest option.

If you do prefer to have a drizzle, the better choices would be honey (generally the lowest in calories), or our almond, peanut, or cashew butter - these are made from 100% nuts and blended without added sugar, salt, or preservatives.

Question 8

Question 10

What is the difference between all the Signature bowls?

All signature bowls (except the Nutty Party) come with the same toppings — fresh fruits, granola, nuts, superfoods and a drizzle of your choice. The difference is in the base:

Triple A — Pure açaí base with fresh fruits, granola, nuts and superfoods. Our most classic bowl. Dairy-free!
Nutty Party — Açaí with banana, granola, nuts and cacao nibs. More crunch, less fruit - great if you prefer texture over sweetness. Dairy-free!

Ch-Ch-Ch-Chia — Açaí with chia pudding (chia seeds and unsweetened almond milk). Dairy-free!
Coco Glow — Açaí with coconut sorbet. Dairy-free!

Question 11

What is the difference between an açaí bowl and a smoothie?

Accepted Answer

An açaí bowl is a thick, frozen blend of açaí pulp served in a bowl and topped with fresh fruits, granola, nuts and superfoods, eaten with a spoon. An açaí smoothie is a thinner, drinkable blend of açaí with other ingredients like banana, yogurt or coconut water.

At An Açaí Affair, our smoothies are a great option if you're on the go or prefer something lighter. Check our menu for the full smoothie selection.

Question 12

Can I customise my açaí bowl?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our Make Your Own bowl lets you build your own from scratch with unlimited bases, fruits, superfoods and one drizzle. For signature bowls, up to two modification requests are allowed. If you have multiple dietary preferences, we recommend the Make Your Own option for full flexibility.

Question 13

What superfoods do you use?

Accepted Answer

Our superfood toppings include granola, almond flakes, pumpkin seeds, cacao nibs, chia seeds, coconut shavings and goji berries. All are available as toppings on both signature and Make Your Own bowls.

Question 14

Is açaí good for weight loss?

Accepted Answer

Açaí is nutrient-dense and high in antioxidants, fibre and healthy fats, which can support a balanced diet. At An Açaí Affair, our small signature bowls start from approximately 150–200 calories without a drizzle. For a lighter option, choose a smaller size, skip the drizzle or opt for honey, and choose fresh fruits over sorbet bases. Açaí bowls work well as a nutritious snack or light meal.

Question 15

Is açaí good post-workout?

Accepted Answer

Yes, açaí bowls are a popular post-workout option in Singapore. Açaí is high in antioxidants which help reduce exercise-induced inflammation, while toppings like granola and nut butters provide carbohydrates and healthy fats for recovery. For a higher protein post-workout option, try our Here's My Abs smoothie with chocolate whey protein, or order the Greek Physique signature bowl.

Question 16

How many calories are in an An Açaí Affair açaí bowl?

Accepted Answer

Exact number of calories differ from bowl to bowl (depending on the bowl you ordered, drizzle choice etc).

-  Small signature bowls: Approximately 150-200 calories (without drizzle)
-  Medium signature bowls: Approximately 300-400 calories (without drizzle)

Question 17

What drizzle would you recommend?

Accepted Answer

We offer ten drizzle options at no extra charge: honey, almond butter, cookie butter, cashew butter, peanut butter, banana cinnamon almond butter, strawberry cashew butter, dark chocolate peanut butter, pistachio sauce and chocolate hazelnut sauce.

For something lighter and less sweet, our nut butters — almond, peanut and cashew — are ground locally in small batches with no added salt, sugar or preservatives. Honey is the lowest calorie option. For something more indulgent, try the cookie butter and pistachio sauce.

Question 18

How should I store my açaí bowl?

Accepted Answer

It is recommended to eat the Açaí bowl within half an hour of purchasing it, before it melts.
 
However, if you would like to store your Açaí bowl overnight, you may request for us to separate the Açaí and all the other toppings in different cups. Store the Açaí in the freezer and the rest of the toppings in the fridge, and combine them when you're ready to eat! 
 
Also,we would strongly recommend that you get a pint of Açaí instead and purchase the toppings separately, so you can assemble your own Açaí bowls anytime you wish!

Question 19

How long do açaí pints last in the freezer?

Accepted Answer

Our Açaí and sorbet pints can be kept for up to 6 months in the freezer. Do not melt and refreeze our products to ensure product integrity.

Question 20

What options are available for people with dietary restrictions or food allergies?

Accepted Answer

Let our friendly staff know if you have any dietary restrictions or food allergies so that we can make the appropriate recommendations. 
 
Also, we would strongly recommend that you opt for the Make-Your-Own Açaí Bowls, where you can build your bowl from scratch with the toppings of your choice.
