Startup CPG Newswire:
BARIS Sprouts National Launch with Exclusive Matcha Flavor

PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Luca Molinari for BARIS

NEW YORK, NY (FEBRUARY 2026) — BARIS, the chocolate-covered frozen raspberry brand rooted in Patagonia, is launching nationwide in Sprouts Farmers Market. The brand will be available in four flavors: Extra Dark Chocolate, Hazelnut & White Chocolate, Pistachio & White Chocolate, and a new Matcha & White Chocolate flavor created exclusively for Sprouts.

Built on the belief that frozen treats should be delicious, real, and meant to be shared, BARIS starts with raspberries hand-picked in Patagonia, a region known for its unique climate and growing conditions. The berries are frozen at peak ripeness and coated in premium chocolate, creating a balanced bite that feels indulgent without excess.

“From launching BARIS from scratch just two years ago to now being on shelf in 470 stores nationwide at one of the country’s top retailers, this milestone represents relentless building, constant learning, refining every detail, and never stopping believing in the vision. This launch is more than distribution. It’s validation. It’s proof that premium, better-for-you indulgence has a place at scale,” said Marcos Della Pia, Co-Founder of BARIS.

As BARIS expands nationally, the brand remains focused on what built it: honoring the quality of Patagonian raspberries, keeping the ingredient list real, and creating a frozen treat that is meant to be shared.
