New July Flavors at Menchie’s: Salted Caramel Pretzel, Farm Fresh Blueberry & Num Noms Makeover







Fro-yo girl here. It’s July 1st and that means that new flavors have arrived at Menchie’s. This month, there are two new flavors, Salted Caramel Pretzel and Farm Fresh Blueberry.

* Salted Caramel Pretzel frozen yogurt is made with real pretzels and caramel, with no artificial colors. It had quite a salty kick and the caramel flavor is pretty strong/intense. I couldn’t detect the pretzels though. The texture was creamy. It’s lowfat and kosher. Recommended toppings: Heath, almonds, pretzels and caramel sauce.

* Farm Fresh Blueberry frozen yogurt is made with real blueberries, no artificial flavors, no artificial colors and no high fructose corn syrup. It’s nonfat and kosher. It’s a pretty looking froyo with a smooth, creamy texture. It tasted like blueberry yogurt the kind you’d get from Yoplait or one of those brands that have more sugar. There was some tang but the sweetness really dominates. Recommended toppings: Fresh fruit for some tang.

It was exciting to see the Num Noms makeover. They had new Num Noms cups (2 limited edition designs) which aren’t scented (too bad), Num Noms door decals and a Num Noms poster. The employees wore blue Num Noms t-shirts. The Menchie’s Num Noms starter pack, available exclusively at Toys R Us, is not on the Toys R Us website yet, but it should arrive this month. You can order online and have it shipped to you or pick it up at your nearest Toys R Us.

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