Lucid to Take Over Yogurtland Pasadena Space

Fro-yo girl here. Yogurtland closed in Old Town Pasadena in fall 2019. The space, 30 W Colorado Blvd, Pasadena, CA 91105, has been vacant ever since. A couple of months ago, I noticed a new flurry of activity but I couldn’t tell what was moving in. The new tenant has been revealed, luxury electric car manufacturer, Lucid. Lucid is also taking over the old Noodle World space which was next to Yogurtland. Both spaces will become a car showroom.

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

Yogurtland Closes in Old Town Pasadena

Fro-yo girl here. Breaking news! Yogurtland has closed in Old Town Pasadena. The last time I saw it open was July 19. I was out of town last week, so I didn’t go to Old Town. The last post on their FB page was on July 21. The last post on their Instagram account was on August 1. But it was closed on August 2. Hmm. Yogurtland Old Town Pasadena opened in 2014 and lasted for five years.

Not only has Yogurtland closed, but the signs have been removed and the windows have been covered with brown paper. There was a sign on the door that said, “Thank you Old Pasadena for hosting us. Please visit us @S. Lake Ave.”

Am I sad? Not really. I rarely went to the Old Town location because it had fewer flavors and was the most expensive Yogurtland in the area. It seemed like a shop for tourists and out of town visitors. Yes, rent was probably much more expensive there. Meanwhile, 21 Choices looks close to opening in Old Town. Open, open, open.

21 Choices Pasadena Moving Day

Fro-yo girl here. 21 Choices last day at their Old Town Pasadena location (85 W Colorado Blvd., Pasadena, CA) was yesterday, December 30. Today they were moving out their signs, machines, and equipment. They will reopen in early 2019 at the corner of Fair Oaks & Union at the new food hall. The old location has its windows papered over but the door was open and there was a truck and trailer parked on De Lacey filled with items from 21 Choices.

At the moment, the only froyo shop in Old Town Pasadena is Yogurtland. Yogurtland is open on New Year’s Eve from 11 AM – 6 PM and New Year’s Day from 12 PM – 10 PM. Regular hours resume on Wednesday, January 2, 2019.

Cupcake Dividers Look Like Froyo Cup Dividers & Where to Find Froyo Cup Dividers in the SGV

Fro-yo girl here. Spotted at Cost Plus: “Cupcake Dividers” from Sweet Creations – these cupcake dividers “allow you to fill your cupcake pan with one batter flavor on one side and another on the other with no mess.” They’re pretty cute because they look like cupcakes and they come in different colors ($1.99 each at Cost Plus).

You slip the mold in the center of the cupcake pan and take the mold out before baking. The dividers are made out of plastic. Maybe I’ll get one and use it as a reusable froyo cup divider…only it’s smaller than most of the froyo cups so they won’t fit the cup snugly.

Speaking of froyo cup dividers, they finally made it to the Pasadena area some time late last year. Yogurtland in Old Town Pasadena has cookie dividers and Menchie’s in South Pasadena has waffle dividers. Yogurtland's San Gabriel (927 E Las Tunas Dr.) location has cookie dividers.

Future Fro-yo Shop Picture: Yogurtland Old Town Pasadena

Fro-yo girl here. Popcorn-n-More, Pasadena’s first gourmet popcorn shop, didn’t last very long. Now there’s a new sign up in their window. Yogurtland is coming to Old Town Pasadena! The new location is on the same block of Noodle World.

It’s too bad there won’t be a Popcorn-n-More stall inside Yogurtland because gourmet popcorn is delicious as a froyo topping. Popcorn-n-More used to have soft serve ice cream which I think you could have topped with popcorn. Too bad they didn’t have frozen yogurt.

This will be the 2nd Yogurtland location in Pasadena. The first location opened on Lake St.

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