Toronto café has the perfect dupe for Hailey Bieber’s Strawberry Glaze Skin Smoothie, Canada Reviews

A downtown Toronto coffee shop opened in Yorkville over the summer, and in addition to focusing on real ingredients, they apparently have the perfect dupe for the Erewhon grocery smoothies, including the popular Hailey Bieber Strawberry Glaze Skin Smoothie.

Aeset Superfood Café, located at 24 Bellair Street near Bay and Bloor, has reimagined coffeehouse classics and swapped out artificial syrups and refined sugars from their coffees, lattes, teas, smoothies, tonics, and snacks for wholesome superfood ingredients (meaning no refined sugar!)

One Toronto-based smoothie lover — who noted that other places in the city that have attempted to dupe the Hailey Bieber strawberry smoothie are nowhere close — recently took a stab at Aeset’s strawberry halo, and she was super impressed!

“This is definitely the closest one for me,” foodie adventurer Nat Doumkos said in an Instagram post, after taking a sip of the smoothie. “This is gonna do it.”

She added that the Aeset smoothie isn’t as sweet as Erewhon’s, but she preferred it that way, writing in her Insta post over the weekend: “torontos VERY OWN Erewhon (but better if I do say so myself)”.

Some of the ingredients (which should theoretically keep one’s skin healthy and glowing) are pretty similar too. Aeset’s strawberry halo is made with organic strawberries, almond milk, and a vegan vanilla collagen booster. It contains biotin, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, sea moss gel, banana, avocado, dates, pure maple syrup, coconut milk, and strawberry chia glaze, while Hailey Bieber’s Strawberry Glaze Skin Smoothie at Erewhon’s contains Malk organic almond milk, organic banana, organic strawberries, organic avocado, organic dates, organic maple syrup, vital proteins vanilla collagen, vanilla stevia, sea moss, organic coconut cream, and Driscoll’s organic strawberry glaze.

Still, some might find the drinks a bit pricey. While the matcha Earth, vanilla marble, and cacao maca love smoothies cost CAD 16/each plus tax, the strawberry halo will set you back CAD 18 plus tax (which is still cheaper than Bieber’s version, which costs USD 19).

“In this economy who has money for this, and then on the other hand complains they have to live with parents[?]” One user asked, while another added that it was the Erewhon dupe “without a price dupe”.

But Doumkos noted that “at least it’s not USD and you don’t need a 5 hr flight to get it”.

Still, many said they are looking forward to tasting the ultra-healthy smoothies.

“Yoooooooooooo I Never Seen This Place In Yorkville Before Omg Obsessed I Been Looking For Smoothies In That Area,” one user stated, while another said, “Yorkville needed this!!!! I’m so excited to try this”.
