How we rate frozen fruits

Our review compares frozen fruits on customer satisfaction, so you can find out what other Aussies think about the compared brands before you go ahead with a purchase. Think of it as like asking hundreds of your closest mates which frozen fruit they think is best!


Canstar Blue surveyed 1,897 Australians for their feedback on the frozen fruit(s) they’ve purchased from a supermarket or grocer and eaten in the last six months.

  • The outcomes reported in these ratings are measured via accredited research panels managed by Qualtrics.


Respondents rate their satisfaction with their frozen fruit brand(s) from zero to ten, where zero is extremely dissatisfied and ten is extremely satisfied. Brand satisfaction was rated by respondents on the following criteria:
  • Overall satisfaction: measures consumer satisfaction with a frozen fruit brand as an individual score NOT a combined total of all criteria.
  • Value for money: the cost was reasonable given the quality and quantity of the frozen fruit.
  • Variety & range: there was a wide range of flavours and types available in the frozen fruit brand range.
  • Taste: the frozen fruit tasted fresh, authentic and as expected given the flavour description (i.e. berry, etc.).
  • Packaging convenience: the frozen fruit packaging made it easy to open or store (i.e. resealable packet).

The winning brand is the one that receives the highest Overall satisfaction rating once all the scores from the Overall satisfaction criteria are combined and averaged.

  • Overall satisfaction is asked as a specific question and represents an individual measure, not a combined total of all criteria.
  • When we cannot determine a clear winner from the criteria for the Overall satisfaction rating, we will then look at the other criteria measured in the rating.
    • The brand with the highest number of five-star ratings within the supporting criteria will become the five-star recipient in overall satisfaction, and thus win the award. If a clear leader still cannot be determined from the supporting criteria, joint winners will be declared.

Brands must have received at least 30 responses to be included, so not all brands available in the market have been compared in this survey. The brands rated in this survey are listed below in order of best overall satisfaction.

  2. Macro Organic

Top Frozen Fruits Brand – Orchard & Vine

Is ALDI frozen fruit good?

ALDI’s Orchard & Vine frozen range includes mixed berries, raspberries, and blueberries − packed in a resealable bag inside each box, with most fruits sold in 500g packets. The budget supermarket says Orchard & Vine products are frozen fresh within 24 hours of harvesting, which locks in both nutrition and flavour.

  • ALDI Orchard & Vine was rated five stars across all categories, including value for money, variety and range, taste, packaging convenience and overall satisfaction.

Is it bad to eat fruit frozen?

There’s virtually no risk of food poisoning by consuming frozen fruits unless the product was contaminated before freezing. This is very unlikely though, but some frozen fruit products have previously been recalled due to contamination risks. Most frozen fruits found in supermarkets are snap frozen at the peak of freshness and ripeness, which means they’re often fresher than canned fruits. Additionally, because the fruits are snapped frozen when they’re ripe, they also retain the majority of their nutrients, making them arguably as healthy as non-frozen fruit.
