All About Toppings — Our Fave Topping Combinations

Frenzi Frozen Yogurt_Beat The Summertime Heat With Frenzi

We all love frosty towers of froyo, that’s needless to say, but we also have a deep appreciation for all the toppings that take your froyo cups from deliciously ordinary to out-of-this-world enjoyable. When we pair these select toppings with any of the fantastic Frenzi Frozen Yogurt flavors, we know we’re in for a memorable treat.

Peach Rings + Gummi Bears + Fresh Blueberries

The gummi bears will seize up immediately, foregoing their previously supple texture for something with a bit more give, while the peach rings retain their tart elasticity. The fresh blueberries serve as a textural magic carpet on which all these contrasting mouth-feels can find sweet commonality.

Hot Fudge + Caramel + Maraschino Cherries

The classics are designated as such for good reason. You can’t beat warm, velvety fudge crisscrossed over ribbons of sweet, sticky caramel, kissed with a plump cherry so violently red it could make a firetruck blush. Honestly, name a more iconic trio — we’ll wait.

Peanut Butter Cups + Blackberries + Coconut

The tart blackberries cut through the savory density of the peanut butter cup while the coconut adds a playful texture you’ll enjoy flossing out of your teeth later when it will remind you of when you ate the best froyo sundae of your life just hours prior.

Frozen Yogurt TV Moments We Love

Frenzi Frozen Yogurt_Frozen Yogurt TV Moments We Love

Frozen yogurt has, through the years, made many famous appearances on some of our favorite TV shows. Since the froyo boom of the 90s collided with the current national infatuation with the frozen treat, parents and their kids can have very special and different pop culture references for frozen yogurt. Here are a few of our favorite special television appearances by froyo.

The Non-Fat Yogurt

Seinfeld, 1993 — When Kramer invests in a new froyo chain, Elaine, Jerry, and George are quickly hooked only to realize the froyo is not in fact low fat and they’ve been slowly gaining weight the whole episode.

The Fall

Grace and Frankie, 2015 — Jane Fonda’s Grace takes a fall on a frozen yogurt shop’s floor and blacks out imagining a world in which age has taken a deliberate toll on both Frankie and their ex-husbands. Jane Fonda + froyo + physical comedy = win

Frozen Yoghurt

Veep, 2012 — Our favorite fictional VP, Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ Selina Meyer, decides to mix with “normal people” at a local frozen yogurt shop helmed by three generations of black businessmen, but the results are borderline disastrous and totally hilarious.

Skimpy’s Frozen Yogurt

Saturday Night Live, 1996 — Roseanne at the peak of her sitcom fame helms this skit about a frozen yogurt shop whose products are too good to be true.

Come pick up your own cup of Frenzi Frozen Yogurt to enjoy while you watch these classic episodes.

3 Ways To Enjoy Frozen Desserts In Fall

Frenzi Frozen Yogert_3 Ways To Enjoy Frozen Desserts In Fall_03

By no means is frozen yogurt strictly relegated to summertime enjoyment. On the contrary, unlike its heavily-caloried cousin ice cream, froyo is decadence that can be relished all year long. As we settle into our fall and anxiously await the holiday season, these three DIY froyo sundaes will get you in a seasonal mood that will make summer a distant if fond memory.

Vanilla Birthday Cake

In the fall, birthday celebrations can get lost in the back-to-school shuffle. Make up for any lost birthday fun with this cakey sundae. Pour equal parts vanilla and cake batter froyo and top with, what else, rainbow sprinkles. Top with a cherry and make a wish.

Chocolate Caramel Truffle

Use equal parts chocolate and dulce de leche frozen yogurt flavors to build this decadent sundae. Top with generous scoops of brownie bites and chocolate sprinkles and enjoy your candy counter delicacy.

Tres Leches

This traditional Latin American dessert consists of white cake soaked in evaporated milk, condensed milk, and heavy cream but you can achieve an equally indulgent sundae with equal parts almond milk, coconut milk, and dulce de leche froyo. Top with a deliberate pour of caramel sauce and enjoy!

3 Pumpkin Froyo Sundaes For Halloween

Frenzi Frozen Yogurt_3 Pumpkin Froyo Sundaes For Halloween

Halloween is nearly here! It’s officially time to dress up your children so they can prowl the streets in search of candy. Or, it’s officially time to dress yourself up in preparation for a big party, or, it’s officially time to open a bag of bite-size Snickers and await the merry hordes of trick-or-treaters. Or maybe it’s just officially time for some frozen yogurt. We opt for the latter, and here’s three awesome pumpkin froyo sundae ideas to prove it.

Pumpkin Mocha Cake — Come to the dark side of frozen yogurt DIY blends with a heavy gush of chocolate, topped with equally heavy pulls of cake batter and pumpkin froyo. Top with Twix and crushed Oreos. Make it extra terrifying with a few brownie pieces scattered on top.

The Coconut Pumpkin Cream Pie — Equal parts pumpkin, vanilla, graham cracker and coconut milk froyo make this sundae a Halloween must. Top the tower with a dusting of dried coconut for an authentic cream pie experience. Go over the top with a scattering of KitKat pieces.

The Halloween Classic — This is the easiest froyo sundae imaginable. Add to one heaping cup of pumpkin froyo: peanut M&Ms, gummi worms, Reese’s Pieces, Butterfinger pieces, mini gummi bears and Snickers. That, my friends, is Halloween night in one cup of unforgettable froyo.

3 Reasons Froyo is Better Than Halloween Candy

Frenzi Frozen Yogurt_3 Reasons Froyo is Better Than Halloween Candy

Don’t get us wrong, Halloween candy is great, we pretty much all agree on that, but there are many reasons to find froyo superior. We may be a bit biased, but we think you’ll agree, frozen yogurt has far more to offer than handfuls of bite-size seasonal candies.

Reason #1—Halloween only comes once a year, but froyo is perennial. And don’t forget, bite-size candy bars are lined up on our candy buffet 365 days a year and you can come enjoy them any day you want, Halloween included.

Reason #2—Froyo sundaes are DIY masterpieces. You can mix and match flavors and create outrageous combinations. You can discover new blends and experiment with discordant tastes and textures. You can create a sundae that no one on earth has ever tried before—an ultimate mashup! Your Halloween mashups are usually just a bunch of different candies mashed up in your mouth at the same time—not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Reason #3—Froyo is a healthy alternative to other sweet treats, featuring probiotics that support your immune system and your digestive health. Frozen yogurt is, in moderation, a perfect alternative to many other desserts, and when topped with fresh fruit and granola, offers even more nutrition.

Either way, get into the Halloween spirit in advance by indulging in one of these brilliant DIY seasonal sundaes.

Pumpkinhead Pie—Better than any pumpkin pie you’ll eat this season, this sundae is equal parts graham cracker and pumpkin froyo topped with white chocolate chips and chopped almonds. Go big and finish this sundae with a healthy jet of whipped cream.

Count Coconut Chocula—Start with a thick layer of coconut milk froyo, and top it with equal parts chocolate and dulce de leche froyo flavors.  Top your froyo with fresh strawberries, raspberries and a few maraschino cherries for a splash of crimson even Dracula would find tempting.

The Definitive Cure For Ice Cream Headaches

Frenzi Frozen Yogurt_The Definitive Cure For Ice Cream Headaches

In our heart of hearts, there is no downside to eating ice cream. But, that said, we’re also aware that the dreaded ice cream headache is a reality.  A quick way to turn an ice cream smile into an ice cream grimace is by eating your ice cream way too fast, but learning a little about the biology of an ice cream headache can help you combat them in the moments when your ice cream consumption simply cannot be slowed.

Firstly, the blast of cranial discomfort is caused by the rapid constriction and swelling of blood vessels in the roof of the mouth, and, as we all know, is typically triggered by an accelerated ice cream eating experience, i.e., eating your ice cream way too fast.

The ice cream headache (also known as Brain Freeze) is a result of all the quickfire cooling and heating (contracting and swelling) of our sinus capillaries which then sends pain triggers to our trigeminal nerve. Ice cream headaches are scientifically known as trigeminal headaches.

The simplest way to relieve an ice cream headache is to press your tongue to the roof of your mouth, normalizing the temperature of your besieged sinus capillaries.

Voila, you now have the cure for the common ice cream headache!
