"Made with real cocoa beans, which have a bold and complex flavor profile, our latest creation delivers the rich and sophisticated taste of real cocoa," says Dan Kim, founder, president and CEO of Red Mango, Inc. "Cocoa is healthy, nonfat and guilt-free, making it the perfect winter treat."

Cocoa is the perfect combination of Red Mango's Original all-natural frozen yogurt and organic fair trade cocoa beans. Don't be fooled by its rich taste and vibrant flavor, as each serving is only around 100 calories. For added indulgence, Cocoa will be topped with free organic chocolate sauce to complement the smooth essence of each swirl.

Like all of Red Mango's frozen yogurts, Cocoa is 100 percent all-natural, gluten-free, and Kosher, and contains no fat, preservatives, or artificial ingredients. Because Red Mango frozen yogurt is real yogurt, it offers a pure, irresistibly delicious and refreshingly tangy yogurt flavor, as well as important nutrients such as calcium and protein. Red Mango's yogurts also contain GanedenBC30® (Bacillus coagulans GBI-30, 6086), a patented natural probiotic that helps support a healthy immune and digestive system.

Cocoa joins Red Mango's current flavors--Original, Pomegranate by POM Wonderful®, and Tangomonium™ (a proprietary citrus blend), all at around 100 calories per serving.
