Products
At any time, Yogurtland stores have up to 16 flavors of soft-serve frozen yogurt. Customers may mix and combine flavors in their cups by pulling on spigots that control the yogurt containers. Additionally, 33 toppings, including chocolate bits, Oreo, fresh-cut fruits, nuts, and syrups are available. At any given time, there are many low-fat and non-fat flavors available. Each location tries to provide at least one tart flavor, as well as one dairy-free flavor, which is popular for people who are lactose intolerant. Also, some flavors are even gluten-free. Products are sold for 30-49 cents per ounce. In Hawaii and Alaska, the products are sold at 42 cents and 45 cents per ounce, respectively. Their current slogan, "get real," refers to the real milk and fresh-cut fruit that is used in making the yogurt, and real toppings.
