Muller Yogurt Introduces New Ice Cream Inspired Flavors Nationwide

CHICAGO, Feb. 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- For more than a century, Müller^® yogurt has been perfecting deliciousness for the world's most notorious pleasure seekers – Europeans. Today, one of the leading yogurt brands in Europe is making waves on this side of the pond for the unapologetically creamy taste of its new indulgent ice cream inspired flavors launching nationwide this month.

Made with the same rich, creamy whole milk goodness of ice cream, the new Müller yogurt varieties include decadent Raspberry Chocolate Chip, rich Vanilla Bean, classic Strawberries and Cream and refreshing Mint Chocolate Chip. Each new flavor provides the perfect touch of delicious indulgence and is a good source of protein and an excellent source of calcium for 210 calories or less.

"Delivering the indulgence of ice cream with the goodness of yogurt, our new flavors are perfect for those 'me moments' we all like to enjoy when we treat ourselves to something really good," said Brian Hannigan, director of marketing for Muller Quaker Dairy. "Müller continues to explore delightful combinations of tastes and textures to offer delicious yogurt."

• Müller Ice Cream Inspired Raspberry Chocolate Chip – Blends luscious chocolate shavings with thick and creamy raspberry yogurt.
• Müller Ice Cream Inspired Mint Chocolate Chip – Inspired by the taste of premium mint ice cream blended with chocolate shavings.
• Müller Ice Cream Inspired Vanilla Bean – So thick and creamy you might think you're eating a scoop of vanilla ice cream straight from the parlor.
• Müller Ice Cream Inspired Strawberries & Cream – Sweet strawberries with extra creamy yogurt to remind you of the taste of premium ice cream.

The new ice cream inspired varieties join the rest of Müller's popular lineup including the various flavors of Müller Corner^® – a smooth yogurt with yummy fruit or crunchy add-ins you can dip, flip or stir in; Müller Greek^® – luscious regular and 100 calorie Greek-style yogurt with a side of fruit or nuts; and Müller FrütUp™ – creamy lowfat yogurt topped with a layer of fruit mousse.

Müller ice cream inspired yogurt varieties are available at retailers nationwide, with a suggested retail price of $1.00. Look for the black Müller packaging in the yogurt aisle.
