The smoothie cubes are crafted with no artificial flavors or colors in the mix and are capable of being blended, but don't have to be; leaving the cubes out for 15-minutes and shaking them with liquid is all that's required. The smoothie product comes in three varieties including The Go-Getter, The Glow To and The Gut Supporter, which are each crafted with a blend of high-quality ingredients. The Glow To is even infused with Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides to give it an extra boost of nutrition. Senior Manager of New Business [Ventures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heinz-tomato-ketchup-filled-hash-browns) at [Nestlé USA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/protein-yoghurt) Jamie Harbeck commented on the Outshine Smoothie Cubes saying, "Our consumers are constantly looking for convenient, nutritious options to support their busy lifestyles. With Outshine Smoothie Cubes, we found a new way to deliver the quality and ease of an out-of-home smoothie without the hassle and mess that comes with conventional, homemade smoothies.” ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.9/10 - Popularity: 95% | Activity: 99% | Freshness: 13% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Frozen Smoothie Trend:** Opportunity to innovate on the traditional smoothie by creating pre-made, frozen, and nutrient-dense options that are convenient and easy to consume. - **Collagen-enhanced Products Trend:** Opportunity to add collagen peptides to various food and beverage products to promote healthy skin, hair, and joints. - **Convenient Health Food Trend:** Opportunity to create more healthy and nutritious options for consumers looking for convenient and easy-to-make food options that fit into their busy lifestyles. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage Industry:** Opportunity to create pre-made and frozen healthy food options that cater to different diets, nutritional needs, and lifestyles. - **Health and Wellness Industry:** Opportunity to incorporate collagen and other health-promoting ingredients into various products and services, including supplements, skincare, and fitness. - **Packaged Food Industry:** Opportunity to develop food products that are convenient, easy to store, and have a long shelf life without sacrificing nutritional quality and taste. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Functional Smoothie Cubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clean-green-smoothie.md) - [Nutrient-Infused Ice Cubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roxii-supercube.md) - [Prebiotic Smoothie Cubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smoothie-cubes-with-prebiotics.md) - [Shelf-Stable Smoothie Pouches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/outshine.md) - [Supportive Collagen Smoothies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collagen-smoothies.md) - [Kelp Smoothie Cubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fresh-fruit-kelp-smoothie-cubes.md) - [Collagen-Packed Protein Shakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collagen-protein-shake.md) - [Probiotic Collagen Smoothies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/probiotic-smoothie-collagen.md) - [Health-Focused Fruity Smoothies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smoothie-pop.md)
