Yesterday the weather was fantastic. It did not rain
as I was expecting it to.
Bondi Beach looked perfect! It was really warm
and I was itching to go for a swim... but more than
that I was also having some really twisted cravings
for frozen yoghurt!
I went to see Cass at her new shop. It's called
Twisted Frozen Yoghurt. The shop itself is a
real eye candy. The color scheme reminded me of
bubblegum flavored
slurpee. I was so preoccupied with admiring the
decor that I did notice the cup full of buttons that
she was holding. She gave me four... and they're all
funny! I think I'll put them on when we go out on
New Year's Eve.
Anyway, back to the Frozen Yoghurt. First you get to
choose the flavor, or you can have a combination of
two, or what they call a twist. And you tell them
which size you want, and you choose the toppings
too. Pretty straightforward.
There are a lot of toppings to choose from, like
Marshmallows, Chocolates, Mini-Oreos and M&M's. I
decided to have Gumi Bears and crushed Tim Tams on
top of Knickers on a Twist, which is a combination
of Chocolate and Coconut Frozen Yoghurt.
And if you do forget what it was that you ordered
you can just turn the cup around and everything's
there. And in large fonts you're also reminded that
it's 98% Fat Free! It's a true Guilt Free
indulgence, unlike Ice Cream.
The combination of Tim Tams and Gumi Bears hit the
spot. Crunchy vs Chewy! The real treat however was
the Frozen Yoghurt itself. The idea isn't new. There
are a lot of other similar themed shops around the
world (ie.
Yogen Früz,
Red Mango and
Pink Berry). And I've tried a lot of them
before.
What sets
Twisted apart is that you could actually taste
the 'realness' of the milk. Others tend to taste a
bit fake, obviously using cheaper dairy substitutes.
But the Frozen Yoghurt that I had tasted and smelled
like real milk. The Chocolate and Coconut flavors
were not overpowering the pure taste of the yoghurt.
It wasn't too sweet, it wasn't too sour. And the
texture was perfect.
I was really happy that I went to
Twisted today. And I was even more happy when
Cass gave me a Tub of Twisted Yoghurt to take home.
It took me a while to make up my mind because there
were so many flavors! In the end I decided to have
Mango. And it came in a really nice carry bag. It
was so Twistedly good and I'm definitely going back
to try the shakes and other flavors!
