Frozen yogurt is a healthy gelato that is especially popular abroad, where customers are captivated by its soft sensation of freshness combined with the tempting taste of gelato. It is a product that adapts well to consumer preferences.
It starts with a frozen yogurt base, and can be personalized with classic toppings like chocolate, caramel, or cherry sauces, or with a fruit salad or individual fruits cut into pieces. Each cup is different from the next, and the final result is guided by the customer's taste, who can indulge in a thousand different variations. The offer is highly natural, as the gelato maker uses at least 20% fresh yogurt.
Frozen yogurt is produced using the same technology as soft gelato: a mantecatore with a different cooling point compared to the machines used for traditional gelato, working between -6 and -7 degrees to ensure a creamy sensation on the palate. More air incorporated into the mixture gives the frozen yogurt gelato its lightness.
There are many ways to make frozen yogurt. It can be made starting from a neutral base with the addition of fresh raw materials, resulting in an excellent product. Alternatively, the gelato maker can mix ready-to-use ingredients and only add milk, cream, and yogurt. This is a faster method with a guaranteed result, thanks to the genuine, safe, and high-quality ingredients offered by the most important brands on the market.
Frozen yogurt is a product that is very popular in various parts of the world. In Italy, it is mostly found in summer vacation spots, and its success is guaranteed by the freshness of the yogurt flavor and the possibility of creating imaginative, colorful, and fun combinations that satisfy the customers' palates, creating unique cups and cones every time.
The largest market is abroad. In Europe, the trend is fluctuating, closely tied to current fashion trends, except in Spain, where thousands of stores have opened in recent years. The main markets for frozen yogurt are South America, with higher numbers in Brazil, and the United States.
