Boba-Inspired Fruit Cups

Del Monte's Single-Serve Fruit Cups Take Cues from Bubble Tea

Del Monte is adding to its vibrant range of single-serve fruit cups with Bubble Fruit, which takes inspiration from boba, or bubble tea. The colorful fruit cups themselves contain popping boba in the form of fruit juice that's encased in a thin, gelatinous coating. These texture-rich, poppable pieces are combined with pieces of fruit that are sweetened in a juice base.

These refreshing fruit snacks from Del Monte are offered in bold flavors like Pear Berry Pomegranate, Peach Strawberry Lemonade and Sour Apple Watermelon.

Beyond the beverage industry, bubble tea is serving as the unlikely inspiration for everything from sandwiches to popcorn snacks and other unique food creations. With consumers becoming increasingly interested in richly textured food and beverage products, bubble tea is emerging as a standout snack with globally inspired appeal.
