Vivid smoothie bowls, reminiscent of something straight out of a children's TV show, have been popping up all over social media in recent years. Among the many smoothie creators, Texas-based Rachel Lorton has garnered popularity for her vibrant colors and creative ideas. She blends bananas and frozen fruit, then uses superfoods like blue spirulina and pink pitaya to create a base. She then creates a layer of colored yogurt, creating lines and curves, and adds textures using a thin stick. Her style is topped with intricately cut fruit. Her ingredients include fruits, vegetables, and even tofu, sometimes incorporating them into her creations. When Rachel was a child, her mother noticed that she ate only vegetables and disliked everything else. Rachel later became a vegetarian and then a vegan in her twenties. Since becoming vegan, she began making and drinking smoothies regularly, and began posting them on Instagram. At first, Rachel wasn't thinking about becoming famous; she continued posting with the sole desire to show her friends that eating healthy food can be fun. However, the appearance of her smoothie bowls captivated people and attracted a lot of attention, eventually gaining nearly 30,000 followers. Because she frequently receives questions about how to make smoothies, she recently started uploading videos showing the process and sharing recipes.

Rachel is passionate about experimenting with different fruits and colors. She says that the world she expresses in her bowls has a therapeutic effect. She enjoys creating her works every day, always hoping to come up with new ideas that will surpass her previous works.
