New Flavors of Noosa Frozen Yoghurt Gelato, Out of This Swirl Lemon Bar (& Others)







Fro-yo girl here. I’ve been looking for the new Noosa frozen yoghurt gelato flavors ever since I first heard about them in March of this year. While Target carries Noosa frozen yoghurt gelato, I haven’t seen the new flavors there. Well, I finally spotted the new flavors at Gelson’s in La Canada Flintridge, CA, for $5.99 each. One container is 14 oz.

The new frozen yoghurt gelato flavors announced in March 2023 were:

  • Amaze-mint Chocolatey Chunk
  • Out of This Swirl Lemon Bar
  • Cookies & Oh-So-Creamy

The few reviews that I found online of Out of This Swirl Lemon Bar were all very positive. Noosa describes the flavor as “is a smooth, creamy sensation. Extra creamy, oh-so-dreamy smooth lemon flavored frozen yoghurt gelato filled with lemon bar pieces and luscious swirls of icing. A one-of-a-kind find.” People Magazine named Out of This Swirl Lemon Bar frozen yoghurt gelato as the Best Frozen Yogurt in 2023, based on their taste tests.

Out of This Swirl Lemon Bar:
If you like sweet lemon desserts, you’ll like this frozen yoghurt gelato. It tastes like lemon cake. There is no tang or sourness. It does not taste like yogurt or Noosa lemon yogurt. It’s definitely sweet (too sweet for me) but pleasant, creamy, rich, and dense. It’s very scoopable. The lemon bar pieces were chewy like bits of pie crust. The icing swirls weren’t too overwhelming. The icing is a little sweeter than the gelato, which is already very sweet. If you like tangy lemon and the taste of yogurt, Out of This Swirl Lemon Bar won’t be your dream lemon flavor.

Out of This Swirl Lemon Bar has live and active cultures. One serving (2/3 cup) is 310 calories, 17g total fat, 35g total carbs, 32g of sugar, and 4g of protein. The main ingredient is cream. It also contains whole milk yoghurt.

Noosa Frozen Yoghurt Gelato Review






Fro-yo girl here. I remember when I read that Noosa was considering launching froyo. That was five years ago and they’ve finally launched their first froyo! It should be available nationwide by summer 2022. The initial reviews have been positive.

Noosa yoghurt gelato is made with whole milk, real fruit, probiotics, and no artificial flavors.

It’s sold in 14 oz tubs (at first I thought they were pints but they’re smaller than pints). My local Vons had all four flavors for $5.99 each. The product is meant to be over-the-top decadent but with live active cultures.




Honey Vanilla Bean: Thick, rich, and creamy, Honey Bean Vanilla is studded with lots of vanilla bean specks. The honey is not evenly distributed but it’s not sticky or super sweet either. Noosa’s Honey Vanilla Bean eats like a honey vanilla ice cream. You can taste the vanilla and a hint of honey. It’s pretty sweet and isn’t tangy like Noosa Yoghurt. One 2/3 cup serving is 220 calories, 10g total fat, 28g total carbs, 28g total sugars, and 4g protein.

Strawberries & Cream: Strawberries and cream has bits of strawberries and is also thick, rich, creamy, and dense. I liked how the strawberries gave it a little tang. It’s also as sweet as ice cream. Surprisingly, it does not have honey (Noosa Yoghurt has honey). One 2/3 cup serving is 230 calories, 10g total fat, 31g total carbs, 30g total sugars, and 4g protein.

Available flavors: Chocolate Fudge, Honey Vanilla Bean, Sea Salt Caramel, Strawberries & Cream

There’s a bit of a disconnect between Noosa’s yoghurt gelato and their regular yoghurt. The honey is missing (except for Honey Vanilla Bean) and so is the yogurt tang. Instead, these yoghurt gelatos are like ice cream. The first ingredient is cream. That’s not to say that they aren’t good but they don’t have a strong yogurt taste.

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