Nestle Outshine Simply Yogurt Bars Review





Fro-yo girl here. I never felt the urge to try Outshine bars/pops before because they didn’t have any yogurt bars. That just changed this month with the launch of Outshine Simply Yogurt Bars, made with 100% yogurt and fruit. I spotted the bars at Target, where a box of four bars (10.2 fl oz) is $4.59.

One bar is 90 calories with 2g of fat and 5g of protein. Outshine Yogurt Bars have live and active cultures, with no artificial colors or flavors and no high fructose corn syrup.

* Blueberry: A thick bar with a soft, creamy, whipped texture that holds its shape well. The bar delivered on its promise of creaminess and it also didn’t have unpleasant artificial flavors. It was light and satisfying. The flavor was slightly tangy and mildly blueberry like but on the bland side (too much cream?) I’ve had better (and worse) froyo bars. This one was better than average in texture but lacking in flavor.

Spotted flavors: Strawberry Banana, Strawberry, Mango, Peach, Blueberry 


There are two other flavors but I'm not sure what they are.

Ingredients (Blueberry): Yogurt (skim milk, sugar, lactose reduced skim milk, cream, blueberry puree, milk protein concentrate, pectin, natural flavors, guar gum, carob bean gum, live and active cultures).

Outshine Simply Yogurt Bars are available only at Target.

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

3.5 out of 5 stars

  1. I saw these at the grocery store and also at Walmart so they're not just available at Target! Yummy and love that they are 100% yogurt. Makes me wonder what percent yogurt everything else is then...

  2. They've expanded their distribution since the time the post was written.

  3. Yes the bars are delicious but some have way more sugar! Especially the Mango! My favorite is Blueberry and Strawberry Banana. It should be noted its still a treat. This is the only bar I can gave on a splurge without my Sugar spiking.
