Better Boba Launches in Southern California with Gelson’s

Better Boba is coming to Gelson’s Markets! Launching in late July, you can find our bestselling classic brown sugar pearls and juicy strawberry pearls at select Gelson’s locations across Southern California.

Why Gelson’s?

Gelson’s Markets is a beloved premium grocery store known for its high-quality, curated selections and commitment to excellence. From artisanal cheeses to the freshest produce and now Better Boba, Gelson’s shelves are stocked with products that elevate everyday living. We couldn’t imagine a more perfect partner to help bring our boba to more kitchens, drink carts, and dessert stations.

Our Mission: Clean, Natural Boba

At Better Boba, we focus on creating a cleaner, more natural way to enjoy your favorite . We use no artificial dyes, no preservatives, and no hard-to-pronounce ingredients. Instead, we make honest, high-quality tapioca pearls inspired by the drinks we love. Our goal is to serve boba lovers who care about what goes into their cup. Seeing our products on Gelson’s shelves shows that quality and community truly matter.

As boba surges in popularity, there is also a growing consumer base for a pearl with better ingredients. We worked hard to craft pearls that are easy to prepare at home and delicious in drinks and desserts. Our small-batch process and commitment to real flavor set us apart, and we’re proud that Gelson’s recognized our passion for sustainability.
