I’m big into smoothies right now so last time I was at Costco I decided to pick up the Costco Kirkland Signature Three Berry Blend from the freezer aisle. Today I’m reviewing it!
Taste
The Three Berry Blend isn’t anything fancy or exciting. It is what it says it is! Frozen blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. This berry blend is AMAZING for smoothies though! I’ve used this berry blend to make pies and I add it to plain Greek yogurt. Despite the berries being frozen they taste pretty fresh, tart and slightly sweet. Obviously nowhere near as good as fresh berries but a pretty great substitute!
Cost
I paid $12.99 Canadian for the 2kg bag of Costco Kirkland Signature Three Berry Blend. Not bad for a huge bag of berries!
Convenience
This is perfect for times when fresh berries are more expensive or are unavailable. You can use the berries in smoothies, on yogurt, even for pies or baking! The best before date on the berries is about a year from the date I purchased the berries. The bag is resealable which is also awesome.
Nutrition
1 and 1/4 cups is 70 calories, 0.5 grams of fat, 17 grams of carbohydrates, five grams of fibre, 11 grams of sugar and one gram of protein. The ingredients list is short and sweet! Raspberries, blueberries and blackberries.
I know this is a little bit of a boring review but I definitely wanted to review it because I think this is great for smoothies, baking etc.

What’s your favorite frozen produce item from Costco?
I tried to make a smoothie and it seemed like every slurp was full of seeds. Did you get that feeling? Do you strain your smoothies?
No I just crunch on the seeds but I don’t mind seeds 🙂
I would like to know if the berries are cleaned effectively before packaging so that any pesticides or herbicides are removed before put into the hands of consumers like me. Thank you.
What about gmos, I can’t find anything online on whether Kirkland products like berries or nuts are gmo or not.
You can definitely reach out to Costco online and ask!
Thank you! Appreciate the unsponsored review. Exactly what I am looking for in a review. Sponsored reviews are useless to me. Thanks again!
I actually don’t do sponsored reviews at all on the blog. I will agree to a free sample to try a product (this happens rarely) with the company knowing I will write my honest review on the blog of the product and do not accept payment for food reviews on the blog. Glad you found it helpful!
