I was visiting California last month and was looking forward to trying Pinkberry. I-yiyi. Really too tart. I tasted it all the way home to Colorado. Too bad I didn’t have time to make a stop at Golden Spoon Frozen Yogurt to enjoy a real treat on my way to the airport. Now that’s really good frozen yogurt.

Pinkberry is not going to be franchising anytime soon I found this great new concept that started in Florida and is expanding throughout the US. Its called Yogurbella and you can check it out at http://www.yogurbella.com I have tried both and to be honest I enjoy the Yogurbella product a little more… and the stores are stunning too…
Just wanted to share that with you all

Best of Luck,
Andrea

anyone who states that frozen desserts are “dead at the retail level” apparently don’t own any units. I own multiple Golden Spoon frozen yogurt stores in SoCal, and there are lines out the door all day long. We’ve been around for 25 years (yes, since 1981) and have the highest AUV in the entire frozen dessert industry..

Pinkberry stores are indeed doing well too, but I seriously doubt they will experience any longterm success with what is essentially a powdered milk product, Also, kids don’t like the sour taste and if you want a large yogurt with lots of fruit, be prepared to spend around $8 bucks..

the ice cream franchises are indeed suffering (marble slab, coldstone, baskin robbins) because frozen yogurt is taking much of their market share.
