Hi all! I have a fun summer treat that I wanted to share with you. A couple weeks ago, the folks over at Yasso contacted me to review a few of their products.
Yasso Review and Giveaway
May 8, 2012

I was definitely intrigued and gladly accepted. I mean, frozen Greek yogurt bars and smoothies!?! Sounded delicious..and they are!
Yasso was started by the duo Amanda and Drew, both former athletes. They wanted to make a good-for-you product that fit into the frozen category. If you can believe they got a degree from Ice Cream Camp (how cool is that!?!) and finally launched their first products in September 2010.
I had a few coupons but only found the raspberry and blueberry flavors at the store. I asked the boy if he would also be a taste taster and he happily agreed. It must be tough to be the girlfriend of a food blogger. ![]()
The nutrition facts on these bars are pretty great! Only 70 calories per bar. And check out the protein… 6 grams!! That isn’t something you often see in a frozen bar.
The product is made with fat free milk and fat free Greek yogurt so, of course, that makes it fat free.
I thought the ingredient list also looked pretty good. From researching their site, I also found that they use milk with NO rBST.
The boy and I each sampled a bar. I chose raspberry while he went with blueberry. We each shared a taste of each other’s as well. Both flavors were delicious. I loved that it had a creamy texture, similar to a creamsicle. I can’t wait to pick up the strawberry flavor too!
We both agreed that it was a great size. You know sometimes you will buy a lower calorie treat and it is itty bitty?? This wasn’t the case.
I give these bars two big thumbs up and you also have a chance to see what you think!
One lucky reader will receive 3 coupons to get $1.00 off any Yasso novelty product.
How to enter:
- Leave a comment telling me which flavor you would like to try: blueberry, strawberry or raspberry.
I will announce the winner next Tuesday, May 15th! Good luck!
A big thank you to Yasso and thanks for reading!
*disclaimer: the coupons provided me to purchase items free of cost. My opinions are honest and my own.

Oh very cool. I’ve not seen those before. Love the protein stats for them too. I would have to go with strawberry first!
Ooohhh….I guess I would have to go with Raspberry!
Raspberry all the way! I haven’t seen these before…but then again I avoid the ice cream/frozen novely section of the grocery store when I go. But a healthier frozen treat sound good to me!
I haven’t seen these before, but would love to sample the raspberry
Have a great week!
I have seen these and have been dying to try them. They look sooo good. I love having a foodie boyfriend that loves trying the products I get to review, this helps ensure I don’t eat everything too!
These sound delicious! I’d probably want to try to blueberry! YUM!
Hello have never tried these before and I would love to try all of them but since I must choose one it would have to be Blueberry.

I would LOVE to try the delicious-sounding Raspberry yogut samples…I want to be able to eat more items made wuth Greek yogurt since I have just startedf eating thistyrpe of yogurt, and some brands are not very taty, topit it mildly! Thank you for helping me to decide whether to purchase Yasso’s or not!?!? I know I will not purchase any unless I am positive I like it! Thank You!
Love, love, love Raspberry – my All Time Favorite!
I can’t wait to get them in the freezer and then …. to the taste.
Very cool! These look pretty yummy!
These look great! I would love to try the raspberry flavor, we used to have bushes in our backyard and to me they truly are a taste of summer!
NASTY. Bought these at Costco in blueberry and strawberry (2 boxes no less) to hoard for me and my husband for after-our four kids’ bedtime-treat. Ug. I was expecting creamy greek yogurt texture bursting with fresh fruit flavor. Instead it ends up more freezer burnish pepto bismol (no offense pepto) flavored and no where near creamy. I’m totally disappointed. Guess I’ll feed em to the neighborhood kiddos after school tomorrow.
Hi Danica! Thanks for your comment. I am sorry that you didn’t enjoy them.
I have not tried any of them But would LOVE too … Please sign me up

The strawberry sounds so good! I love that they’re not dinky because then it’s just a tease

I saw the blueberry ones at the grocery store and decided to try them. A bit pricey for a student, but too good to pass out. I’M OBSESSED WITH THEM NOW! They’re delicious!! I’m going to spend all my free time looking for coupons because these are all I want to have now!
