TEMPE, Ariz., July 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Yogurtini®, originally established in Tempe, Arizona in 2008, today announces the grand opening of the first Kansas City location. The self-serve frozen yogurt shop has become a sensation in Arizona, building a devoted following of its non-fat, real yogurt, pay by the ounce model.  The 'serve-yo-self®' concept allows customers to make their own frozen yogurt creation, creating bespoke blends just like a signature martini.  Yogurtini® offers a rotating selection of 16 flavors and more than 65 toppings daily.  The initial Kansas City Yogurtini® franchise is located at 8749 NW Prairie View Road in the Zona Rosa retail and entertainment district.

"We are excited to bring Yogurtini® to the Kansas City area," says Alan Stribling who along with business partner Perry Kessler co-owns the Yogurtini® franchise.  "We researched dozens of business models before choosing to invest in Yogurtini®.  There is nothing like it in the Midwest.  Yogurtini® represents a lifestyle that thrives in Kansas City.  It is for people who like a fun, creative, interactive experience and are conscientious about healthy alternatives," he continued.

Providing its customers with a unique experience upon each visit, Yogurtini® offers 16 fat-free flavors each day, rotating from its extensive list of exclusive frozen yogurts. Yogurtini® regularly has classic flavors such as Ultimate Chocolate, Classic Vanilla, Chelsey's Cheesecake, and Peanut Butter, but there is always a surprise for the more adventurous like Northshore Pineapple Tart, Island Coconut and Green Apple Tart.
