Fro-yo girl here. Sprouts just added Gelatys Mini Gems to the freezer section. Mini Gems are mini gelato pops. They’re available in five flavors, including one yogurt-based flavor, Greek Yogurt with Blueberry and White Chocolate. A box of four mini pops is $8.99 regular price. I found them on sale for $7.99/box.
Greek Yogurt: The plain yogurt gelato pop had a drizzle of blueberry sauce and was enrobed in Belgian white chocolate. There was very little blueberry sauce. The Belgian white chocolate shell was thin and crispy. The sweetness of the white chocolate didn’t complement the tartness of the plain yogurt. It detracted from the yogurt flavor. The yogurt was slightly tangy with a light, somewhat creamy texture (it wasn’t super creamy). It did taste like yogurt. The pop was about 2.5 inches high and 2 inches in length. One 45g mini pop is 140 calories, 10g total fat, 10g total carbs, 9g total sugars, and 2g protein. It’s made with Greek yogurt and heavy cream.
Available flavors:
- Passion Mango
- Strawberry Chocotella
- Pistachio Chocotella
- Chocolate Volcano
The Gelatys full-size gelato on a stick Blueberry Yogurt was much better. I’ve had a hard time finding it recently.
3.5 out of 5 stars.

Fro-yo girl here. While I was at Pavilions in South Pasadena looking for Gelatys gelato on a stick pops, I spotted another Gelatys product, Gelato Bites. Surprisingly, I found them in the bakery area near the ice cream cakes and not in the area with the ice cream and frozen novelties.
One box was $10.99 and 8.11 oz. Each box contains 12 bites and each bite is dipped in chocolate. The bites are not individually wrapped. One bite has a circumference of slightly under 2 inches. Pavilions had three different flavors.
Yogurt Blueberry Gelato Bites: The plain yogurt was thick and tangy. It wasn’t as creamy as the Gelatys yogurt blueberry pop for some reason. And there was barely any blueberry sauce. I was expecting much more sauce based on the photo of the product on the box. The white chocolate shell was thin and sweet but didn’t really add much (other than making it easier and less messy to eat the yogurt). One bite was 50 calories, 3.5g total fat, 4g total carbs, 3g total sugars, and 1g protein.
The gelato bites are made with all-natural ingredients. The bars are better!
Flavors: Blueberry Yogurt, Super Dulce de Leche, Mint Chip, Pistachio Chocotella, White Chocotella, Passion Mango, Chocolate Volcano, Cookies & Cream

Fro-yo girl here. I recently walked into Pavilions in South Pasadena, CA, and spotted two freezers near the entrance. One freezer had macaron ice cream sandwiches and the other, Gelatys gelato on a stick. Remember when gelato pop places were popular? Popbar, Stick Station, and Enjoyer were gelato pop places in the Los Angeles area back in the mid-2010s. All three of them offered a froyo pop.
Anyway, Gelatys reminds me of those gelato pop shops only it’s a freezer in a supermarket. The gelato pops are $4.99 each and they come in different shapes, like a cat-shaped pop and a paw-shaped pop. One bar is 2.6 oz. Flavors include Passion Mango, Very Berry, Pistachio Chocotella, etc. There’s only one froyo pop, Yogurt Blueberry.
The pops are made in Miami and are all-natural and gluten-free. Gelatys claims to have created “the first gelato pop in the US.” Their recipe is creamy and doesn’t melt as fast as other pops.
Yogurt Blueberry gelato pop: The pop looked as nice as the picture on the packaging. The blueberry sauce is in the center and drizzled lightly on the front of the pop. It’s not blended into the yogurt gelato. The pop mostly tastes like yogurt gelato but it’s really good yogurt gelato in terms of texture (thick and creamy) and flavor (tangy). It didn’t melt quickly. The blueberry sauce added a bit of tang and flavor. It was better than the yogurt gelato pops that I’ve had in the past from Popbar, Stick Station, and Enjoyer. The pop was 3.5 inches x 2 inches x 1 inch.
One pop is 130 calories, 6g total fat, 17g total sugars, 2g protein, and 19g total carbs. It’s made with whole milk, yogurt, and heavy cream.
You can also use the Product Finder on their website to look for Gelatys near you. They're available at most Pavilions locations.
I hope they come out with more yogurt gelato pop flavors!
