Yogurtland Fan Choice Awards Promotion Begins, Birthday Cupcake Batter Wins Best All Around







Fro-yo girl here. The Fan Choice Awards promotion began today with the announcement of two fan favorite winners: Best All Around winner, Birthday Cupcake Batter and Best Newcomer, Carrot Cake. Congratulations to Birthday Cupcake Batter, which will be available at participating Yogurtland shops throughout the promotion (Jan. 6 - March 2), and Carrot Cake (which is in stores now and will remain while supplies last). Each week one new winning flavor will be revealed and featured at Yogurtland locations.

The new signs are up and they look quite glamorous. Each flavor comes with an acceptance speech (cute).

A message from Birthday Cupcake Batter: “You like me, you really like me! I’d like to thank all the fan for helping me keep the celebration alive with my sweet, buttery-smooth, yellow-cupcake-batter flavor! For all the real flavors out there, culinary dreams do come true.”

A message from Carrot Cake: “It’s not easy being new. Thank you all so much for recognizing my fresh-from-the-bakery deliciousness. I couldn’t have done it without real carrots, hand-selected spices, and real cream cheese frosting.” I don’t like carrot cake but I do like carrot cake froyo, it’s indulgent and spicy, but not as heavy as the real thing.

I’ve included official press release with additional details below.

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
