Frozen Blueberry Facts
SO GOOD FOR YOU!
Blueberries are PACKED with nutrients and are an absolute Superfood.
They contain so many good things including Vitamin C / Vitamin K / Vitamin B6, not to mention their extremely high antioxidant content.
They are great for loads of stuff & are often written about being good for helping our:
Immune System / Skin Health / Bone Health / Metabolism / Brain Development & Reducing the risks of Heart Disease & Cancer
SO EASY TO FREEZE
Pick your Bluebs here, and then literally just put them in the freezer. No need to wash or do anything complicated.
They don’t stick together and you can pick out one or two at a time if you need just a little shot of goodness every now & again :)
We freeze LOADS and have them to sell all year round in the Flower Barn Cafe.
SO MANY WAYS TO EAT THEM!
Chuck them in your porridge, your cereal, your yoghurt…
Fantastic in Smoothies & Ice lollies
Amazing in Bakes & Cakes
Blueberry Jam is something else!
Or just eat them straight out of the freezer - the healthiest most refreshing sweets on the planet!
Keen to try some of the above? Head on over one day to the:
Flower Barn Cafe
