You may remember the Frozen Yogurt craze of the 80’s where it was touted as a healthy snack because it was typically lower in fat. Well today Frozen Yogurt is back, in a big way and it isn’t just the same old stuff. Now it isn't just looked at as a low-fat desert, tart yogurt is actually being promoted as being healthy for you too.

 

Today’s Frozen Yogurt is riding the popularity of “live active cultures” in health brands such as Activia and is often referred to as “tart frozen yogurt” because of this . Additionally, many shops are positioning Tart Yogurt as a healthy alternative to ice cream, something that is low in sugar, served with fresh berries, granola, and other “healthy” toppings.

While the mid-west is just now starting to demand it, Kool Technologies has been following this trend as it transformed the market in California and the North East. Tart Yogurt works best in upper income locations, and especially in college towns. All you need is a Stoelting Soft Serve machine , we recommend the Stoelting F431 as it has a small footprint and provides consistent high quality product.
