Background

A new retail concept for Edible Arrangements, the Edible To Go® Store is a fruit-lover’s dream, featuring a delicious variety of fresh cut fruit in an array of forms--from arrangements and dipped fruit boxes, to grab-and-go treats, fruit salads and all natural fruit beverages.

"Edible Arrangements’ mission is to bring our healthy, delicious fruit to more and more people, and this new store concept enables us to do this in an exciting new way," says Farid, who founded Edible Arrangements in 1999 and developed it into the global leader in fresh fruit arrangements with more than 1,100 locations worldwide. "Edible To Go stores offer fresh fruit delights and treats that are truly unique, and the elegant King of Prussia Mall is a perfect partner to help us introduce this concept."

At the new Edible To Go Store, shoppers can watch as Fruit Experts® create personalized treats by dipping fresh fruit in chocolate and adding toppings such as shredded coconut, chocolate morsels, crushed almonds and sprinkles. Other treats include ready-to-go Apple Fruit Truffles® and chocolate dipped caramel apples.

The new Edible To Go® Store also features:

  • Fresh Fruit Arrangements & Dipped Fruit Boxes – Freshly made fruit bouquets and decadent chocolate dipped fruit gift boxes, ready to pick up and take home.
  • Chocolate Dipped Fruit – Guests can select fresh fruit to dip and top with their choice of chocolate and toppings. Or shoppers on the fly can choose from "Guest Favorites" that are dipped fresh and ready to go, including chocolate covered strawberries, Cinnamon Chocolate Apple Wedges® and double dipped bananas. Other specialties include chocolate dipped caramel apples, pineapple pops and new Apple Fruit Truffles®.
  • Fresh Fruit Salads, Sundaes and Parfaits – Available with a choice of fruit and toppings such as shredded coconut, chocolate morsels, crushed almonds and sprinkles.
