Spotlight on BOOM Yogurt Bar in Boulder, CO



Fro-yo girl here. While I haven’t had the privilege of visiting BOOM Yogurt Bar, it sounds like a special place that emphasizes healthy, natural toppings, organic fresh fruit, and locally made yogurt and granola. Unlike most fro-yo places, you won’t find sugary mass produced toppings like Cap’n Crunch and Nerds candy. They plan on opening a second location in Lowry Town Center beginning of May.

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

Here’s more information about BOOM from their press release:

BOOM Yogurt Bar is all about LOCAL

Boulder, CO Jan 24, 2012 – BOOM Yogurt Bar, opened its door mid-September with a focus on community and locally-made yogurts, oatmeal, and toppings. Since opening, BOOM has expanded its menu to include more local companies.

BOOM Yogurt Bar is the new generation of the yogurt-craze in a relaxing, inviting gathering space. Inspired by years of international yogurt eating of Boulder’s 2008 Olympian Matty Reed’s global athletic pursuits, BOOM provides a healthy experience with a local twist.

Recently BOOM Yogurt became the first ever to create and tap both a mix1 and a Muscle Milk frozen yogurt. These new frozen yogurts have added proteins to the natural probiotic yogurts.

“It is always great to find complementary local brands to partner with. We are excited to work with BOOM and create some fun new ways to connect with the boulder community,” Peter Archer, mix1 Marketing Manager Colorado said.

Boom’s goal of bringing the community together continues as they have recently added Boulder EVOL Foods burritos and Dizzy’s Donuts, both local creations.

“We wanted to bring together local companies and create a “bar”, a place where people can go, grab some healthy food and treats, locally made, and feel comfortable and relax,” said Kelly Reed, co-owner. “We don’t want to be just the normal fro yo shop. We want to take it to the next level.”

The BOOM Yogurt Bar menu features natural frozen yogurt (with probiotics) slow cooked oatmeal, Noosa Yoghurt, greek yogurt, a non-dairy yogurt, various purees from Noosa, fresh fruit, fresh mochi, chocolates from local company Concertos in Chocolate.

“Noosa Yoghurt is very excited to work with other Colorado based companies, especially companies providing fresh quality product to Coloradoans,” Paul Mathewson, from Noosa Yoghurt said. “This is Noosa's ethos and we love to align to similar minded companies such as Boom.”

“BOOM offers food that is good for the body, fuel for the day. We open at 7:30 on weekdays and 10:00 in the morning on weekends so that people can fuel up for the day.” Reed said. Breakfast offerings are available all day.

BOOM’s effort to gather the community is shown in its BOOM ROOM, a 30 person gathering room, which can be reserved for birthday parties, get-togethers, book clubs, business meetings and more. The room offers seating, table space, bar seating, television, AV-equipped, and most of all a modern, earthy feel.

BOOM Yogurt Bar is also working with local organizations such as the Young Rembrandts, Clementine Art Studio, local artists, musicians and designers, as well as many clubs in Boulder to offer them a free place to hold classes, meetings and parties. BOOM is currently featuring artwork by Will Day, a Boulder artist.

BOOM also delivers for parties, mid day office cravings and special events.
