Fro-yo girl here. Happy September. Menchie’s has two featured flavors for September: Chocolate Frosted Donut froyo made with Dove chocolate and the returning favorite, Harvest Pumpkin froyo. I thought Menchie’s already had a donut flavor, but it hasn’t (Yogurtland had Maple Donut froyo though).
Chocolate Frosted Donut froyo: Menchie’s describes this flavor as, “Inspired by a chocolate frosted donut, this flavor features rich dark chocolate frosting swirled into smooth, creamy frozen yogurt. Every bite blends Dove’s dark chocolate with notes of freshly fried dough for an indulgent experience.” It didn’t taste like dark chocolate, but it did taste different from a regular chocolate froyo. The fried dough flavor was like cake batter or something. The texture was icier than I expected. I didn’t like the flavor at all. It would be better if it were just dark chocolate froyo. Recommended toppings: chocolate shell, chocolate chips
Menchie’s has a new promotion where you can earn double points on Tuesdays in September between 4 PM – 6 PM when you scan your app. Also, everyone who scans the app will be entered into a contest where you could win a $100 froyo party for your class.
Also, the Susan G. Komen fundraiser is back. Donate a minimum of $1 at the register, and you’ll get a sign to fill out and a sticker. They’ll put the sign on the wall to show your support for the fundraiser.

Fro-yo girl here. Menchie’s is partnering with Susan G. Komen again, to raise money for breast cancer research and programs. The goal is to raise $200,000 or more in August. Guests who make a donation will receive a sign that says “I donated to Susan G. Komen at Menchie’s.” You can personalize the sign and display it on the wall at Menchie’s. I made a donation and also received a sticker saying that I had donated.
The two featured flavors for this month are S’mores froyo and Hawaiian POG sorbet. S’mores is a returning flavor. Hawaiian POG sorbet is new. POG stands for passionfruit, orange, and guava.
Hawaiian POG sorbet: The orange flavor was the strongest of the three fruit flavors. There was a tropical twist to the flavor with the addition of passionfruit and guava. It was rather sweet with no real tang. I wouldn’t get it again. Hawaiian POG sorbet is dairy-free and contains no artificial colors, no artificial flavors, and no high fructose corn syrup.
Featured flavors are available for a limited time, while supplies last. Menchie's website looks different. You still can't easily search the flavors online. And it's harder to see the full list of stores.
