WHO WE ARE

Mamaka Bowls began the moment KK & Carrie left each summer spent in Laguna Beach, California to go back home to Dallas, Texas and realized there was no way to live without the açaí bowls they had eaten every day for three months straight.

Pretty quickly KK convinced Carrie to figure out their version of a smoothie bowl recipe and, with zero shock to anyone, she created the perfect bowl with the homemade granola still made in each store today. Carrie delivered the bowls to KK’s high school, growing from one bowl a day to 40–50 bowls a day. After one of the busiest years of her life, the purchase of a giant freezer, 3 blenders, hundreds of pounds of frozen fruit, endless Sunday nights of strawberry cutting and a house with a permanent freshly baked granola smell, Carrie called it quits for a much-needed break.

After a few years of revamped Mamaka withdrawals, KK decided to take over in a new house and in a new state. Expecting a chill summer making a couple different bowls a day for friends, KK & Carrie now laugh at how much that didn’t happen. Lines of people stood outside KK’s college home waiting to pick up their bowls each day. Once the summer came to a close, KK & Carrie didn’t blink twice, knowing Mamaka was meant to be something more, and signed a lease at their first storefront in Fayetteville, AR. Since then they have had a complete 180-degree life change and couldn’t be more stoked that people get to experience beach life and understand how freaking incredible Mamaka Bowls are.

From the start, they wanted Mamaka to be more than just a product that tasted good, it had to be truly good for you. None of their blends contain added sugar, their açaí has zero sweeteners, and they make their signature granola fresh in-house every single day. They built the menu around healthy, vibrant flavors that stand on their own, so much so that only 2 of their 15 bowls even use açaí. Every bowl is crafted to taste amazing without sacrificing quality or nutrition.

KK & Carrie believe that life is better when it's lived in corduroy shorts by the beach, that laughter and salty air are better than most things, and being a free spirit is a dang good thing. They strive to combine that mindset with their love of açaí to create the perfect bowl. Let's live a life well lived.
