Behind the Scenes: Preparing for the Purple Ocean Superfood Lake Nona Launch

As we prepare to open the doors of our new Purple Ocean Superfood Bar in Lake Nona, there’s an excitement in the air that we can’t wait to share with you. The journey to this grand opening has been filled with dedication, passion, and a deep commitment to bringing the vibrant flavors of the Caribbean to our new community. In this blog, we’re taking you behind the scenes to show you what it takes to launch a new location, from our story to the final preparations for the big day.


Our Story at Purple Ocean Superfood Bar


Purple Ocean Superfood Bar was born out of a dream by our founder, Josiah Candelaria. Josiah was inspired by the rich, vibrant culture of his Puerto Rican heritage and wanted to share the flavors and wellness practices that have been passed down through generations. When he realized that Orlando, FL, was missing a spot that offered authentic Brazilian Açaí and Central American Pitaya, he knew it was time to fill that gap. That’s how Purple Ocean came to life, and since then, we’ve been on a mission to provide our community with healthy, organic, and delicious superfood options.

Caribbean-Inspired Delights


At Purple Ocean, we’re more than just a restaurant; we’re a community that values health, flavor, and sustainability. Our menu is a celebration of Caribbean culinary traditions, featuring vegan and vegetarian options that are as nourishing as they are delicious. From our specialty Açaí and Pitaya bowls to our freshly made smoothies, every item is crafted with care, using organic ingredients that are good for both your body and the planet.


As we prepare to bring this experience to Lake Nona, we’re excited to introduce our new neighbors to the tastes and traditions that make Purple Ocean so special. Whether you’re a busy professional looking for a quick, nutritious meal, or someone who simply loves to explore new flavors, our offerings are designed to satisfy every craving.


Sustainability at the Core


Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword for us—it’s a core part of who we are. From the very beginning, we’ve been committed to making choices that are good for the earth. Our ingredients are organic, our packaging is eco-friendly, and our practices are designed to minimize waste. As we prepare for our Lake Nona launch, we’ve taken extra steps to ensure that our new location upholds these values. We believe that every meal we serve should not only nourish your body but also contribute to a healthier planet.


The Final Countdown to Launch


With the grand opening just around the corner, our team has been working tirelessly to ensure that every detail is perfect. From perfecting our menu to creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere in our new space, we’re focused on making your first visit to Purple Ocean Lake Nona an unforgettable experience.

Behind the scenes, there’s a buzz of activity as we finalize the décor, set up the kitchen, and prepare for the big day. Our team is training hard, learning everything there is to know about our new menu items, and getting ready to serve you with the same passion and enthusiasm that defines Purple Ocean.
