Sweetkiwi Whipped Greek Froyo Review

Fro-yo girl here. The day I heard that Sweetkiwi Whipped Greek Froyo was being carried by Ralph’s in Southern California, I rushed over to Ralph’s to get some. A few weeks have since gone by. I’ve been to several Ralph’s locations and none of them had Sweetkiwi. It turns out that not every Ralph’s carries Sweetkiwi. I finally found Sweetkiwi at the Ralph’s in South Pasadena at 1745 Garfield Avenue. They had three flavors: Vanilla, Chocolate Hazelnut, and Cookies & Cream. One package is 14 oz. and $6.99 each (regular price) at Ralph’s.

Sweetkiwi is a certified women owned business and a minority-owned company founded by Ehime Eigbe-Akindele. Ehime founded the first frozen yogurt company in Nigeria and became the leader in that market. A few years later, she moved to Washington DC and decided to create a consumer-packaged version of froyo for grocery stores and other food retailers. The company later launched a line of granola.

Sweetkiwi starts with locally sourced milk from grassfed cows and real ingredients. Sweetkiwi is high in protein, probiotic and prebiotic, and superfood infused. You can find Sweetkiwi at Walmart, Kroger, Whole Foods, and other grocery stores.

Cookies & Cream froyo: The texture was very firm coming out of the freezer, firmer than ice cream or froyo typically is. It has a high protein taste that I’m not personally not fond of. It seemed chalky and sweet but sweet in a weird way (when the sweetness comes from more than sugar). The texture is somewhat chewy and dry. I'm surprised that it's whipped because the texture is so dense. 

FYI, I tried Sweetkiwi again and it was much better! Read my updated review.

One serving is 2/3 cup, 120 calories, 1g total fat, 23g total carbs, 16g total sugars, and 9g protein. The ingredients include live and active cultures, Greek yogurt, milk protein concentrate, and a superfood blend of acerola juice concentrate, strawberry, green coffee bean extract, maqui, acai, turmeric, blueberry, broccoli, kale, and tart cherry. Wow, lots of ingredients!
