YouTube channel

According to Grassi, he and Hoying were at IHOP and discussed how they wanted to individually start YouTube channels, but eventually decided to launch one together. According to Hoying, the name Superfruit "came from Mitch's random mind". The first Superfruit video was uploaded on August 13, 2013.
Superfruit consists mainly of comedic vlogs and various casual games and competitions, but the channel also features a number of musical projects. Most videos solely feature Hoying and Grassi, but some include other musical artists or non-musical guests. Both Grassi and Hoying identify as gay.
In 2019, ice skater Adam Rippon appeared in Superfruit's "The Promise" music video.
Since 2020, Superfruit's social media have remained dormant, with the exception of re-uploading GUY.exe on October 12, 2021 due to its popularity on TikTok.
