Yogurtland's Fan Choice Awards Winner for Best Bakery: White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookie

Fro-yo girl here. The Yogurtland Fan Choice Awards continue. Yogurtland fans have spoken again. And the winner for Best Bakery froyo flavor is...White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookie (WCMNC).

A message from White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookie, “Thank you for choosing me as the tastiest cookie to ever be enjoyed with a spoon. It took real teamwork, and I'd like to thank the real Australian double-roasted macadamia nuts who blended with white chocolate flavor and light brown sugar for that fresh-out-of-the-oven taste."

WCMNC is a complex flavor. The white chocolate is sweet and mellow and there's a hint of light brown sugar for warmth. I would add white chocolate chips as a topping.
White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookie will be available at participating Yogurtland locations while supplies last, starting today.

Congrats to White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookie!

Yogurtland Fan Choice Awards Winner: Creme Brulee Wins Most Exotic

Fro-yo girl here. Yogurtland fans have selected Crème brûlée as the winner for Most Exotic froyo flavor in the Yogurtland Fan Choice Awards. Crème brûlée thanks the voters and said, “Coming from France, I am really honored to be adored by all you fans here in Yogurtland. As we say where I’m from, merci for embracing my silky, rich vanilla custard with a light, caramelized sugar topping.”

I just had a big cup full of Crème brûlée froyo and it truly does have a caramelized/burnt sugar flavor...very impressive. I might like it better than the actual dessert because I love the smooth, cold, creamy texture of Crème brûlée froyo. It’s so good with crispy chocolate toppings, nuts and mochi.

Crème brûlée froyo will be available at participating Yogurtland locations while supplies last, starting today.

Congrats to Crème brûlée!

Easy Breezy 2 Opening Day

Fro-yo girl here. Easy Breezy’s Inner Sunset location opened today! Of course I couldn’t stay away. There are four shiny new Carpigiani soft serve machines serving up 8 scrumptious hand-crafted frozen yogurt and frozen custard flavors a day. I love checking out the toppings bar because they’re always adding unique toppings. Today they had potato chips, bacon and my favorite, waffle cookies. I love seeing the sweet froyo cup logo/character named Breezy too.

Here are some pictures from opening day!

New Froyo Spoons: Yeti Yogurt

Fro-yo girl here. I’ve never been to Yeti Yogurt but thanks to @badrobot68 I now have a set (green, blue, orange) of their adorable froyo spoons. I’ve always liked yeti/bigfoot, so I love that the spoons feature a giant foot with four toes. Does Yeti only have eight toes? In the footprint images that I’ve seen, he has ten toes.

Thank you Alan!

Innovative Fro-yo Shop Spotlight: Go Greek Yogurt in Beverly Hills

Fro-yo girl here. Standards are high in Beverly Hills and the yogurt of choice is flown from Greece. Go Greek Yogurt offers authentic Greek fresh and frozen yogurt and other Greek imported products, including olive oil, honey, coffee, and toppings.

The triple strained plain yogurt is available with 0%, 2%, or 10% fat. Top it with imported Greek toppings like carrot, quince, rose, strawberries, or sour cherry. You may think a strawberry is a strawberry but a Greek strawberry tastes different. Other toppings range from sweet to savory: cucumbers, olives, olive oil, basil, nuts, Greek honey, raw peanut chews, fresh fruit, figs, dates, nuts, chia seeds, flaxseeds, housemade granola and more. Or opt for a parfait. They’re open early on weekdays.

Then there’s the self-serve frozen yogurt, made with their 2% or 10% Greek yogurt. There are four flavors a day for 60 cents an ounce. The plain and honey frozen yogurt flavors are the best. Made with 2% yogurt, the texture is super smooth, rich, dense and creamy and the yogurt flavor comes through. It’s on the sweeter side but has a bit of tang. Some customers like to mix the fresh yogurt with the frozen yogurt.

They’re eco-friendly and buy their farm fresh toppings from local farms. You can get a signature Go Greek terracotta pot for storing your yogurt. It’s made in Greece and biodegradable.

They also sell gift boxes and Go Greek aprons.

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