Yoplait Custard Yogurt For several years, Yoplait fans have asked for the return of their beloved Custard Yogurt. It became clear that this insanely delicious yogurt had a special place in yogurt fans' hearts. This fan favorite is now back on shelves, and better than ever.
Now made with whole milk, Yoplait Custard has an unmistakable silky smooth, spoon-hugging texture, and is returning to shelves with a new look, no colors or flavors from artificial sources and no high fructose corn syrup. New Yoplait Custard Yogurt flavors include Vanilla, Strawberry, Blueberry, Banana, Lemon and Caramel.
To celebrate Yoplait Custard's launch, Yoplait will be surprising fans who asked for the product's return with over the top surprises in their hometowns, including a year's supply of Yoplait Custard Yogurt. The first video features superfan, Whitney from Tulsa, whose real tweet, "my childhood died with the disappearance of Yoplait Custard Style tbh," Yoplait answered by recreating her childhood bedroom from top to bottom and filling it with Yoplait Custard Yogurt. The brand will be releasing additional surprise videos in the coming months.
"We received many emails, phone calls, Tweets, Facebook posts, and other types of impassioned requests from fans asking us to bring back their beloved original Yoplait Custard Yogurt," said Priscilla Zee, Senior Marketing Manager for Yoplait. "As a result of that amazing consumer passion, we decided to bring it back for those original fans like Whitney and now, a new generation of fans as well."
Greek 100 Protein The new Yoplait Greek 100 Protein, now with 14-15 grams of protein and still 100 calories, has replaced Yoplait Greek 100 in the yogurt aisle. Greek yogurt fans can expect a thicker yogurt available in 20 flavors including Strawberry, Black Cherry and Peach. Yoplait Greek 100 Protein contains no high fructose corn syrup, is made without colors or flavors from artificial sources, contains live and active cultures, and like all Yoplait yogurt, is made with milk from cows not treated with artificial growth hormones.
