National Frozen Yogurt Day at Menchie’s & a New Flavor, Rich Dark Chocolate

 

Fro-yo girl here. The official National Frozen Yogurt Day is this Saturday, February 6, but I’m up for celebrating it early. It makes it easier to take advantage of multiple NFYD offers. First up, Menchie’s! They had a buy one, get one free offer today (US locations). Also, if you use the Menchie’s app on NFYD (February 2), you’ll be entered into a contest. Twenty lucky people will win $20 uploaded to their Menchie’s app account.

In other Menchie’s news, Menchie’s has a new featured flavor for February, Rich Dark Chocolate made with Hershey’s Special Dark Chocolate. February happens to be National Chocolate Month and National Dark Chocolate Day was Feburary 1. Also, Menchie’s offers Valentine’s Day froyo cakes that can be customized. They even have mini sizes.

I was fortunate to find Rich Dark Chocolate froyo at Menchie’s Valley Village (Los Angeles) today. Though chocolate froyo is not a favorite of mine, I really liked this new flavor. It might be the best chocolate flavor that Menchie’s has ever introduced.

Rich dark chocolate froyo: The texture was definitely smooth, creamy and dare I say, luxurious. It didn’t look darker than the typical chocolate froyo but it seemed less sweet with a little bitterness from the dark chocolate. Really good! I might have added too many chocolate toppings but it’s National Chocolate Month. Recommended toppings: Hershey’s Dark Chocolate Chips, Nilla wafers, nuts.

This flavor has no artificial colors or artificial flavors, no high fructose corn syrup, and it’s gluten-free. It's available for a limited time, while supplies last.

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