What is the best yogurt for yogurt bark?

We recommend plain Greek yogurt or unsweetened cashew yogurt. Both are thick enough to hold shape when frozen and mild in flavor so your toppings shine. Avoid flavored yogurts with added sugars or gums—they’ll throw off the texture and sweetness balance. If you’re dairy-free, go for a coconut or almond-based option with minimal ingredients and live cultures for probiotic benefits.

Is blueberry yogurt safe for dogs to eat?

Yes—plain blueberry yogurt made with no artificial sweeteners (especially no xylitol) is safe in moderation for most dogs. Just make sure there’s no added sugar or flavoring. Even better? Set aside a few plain pieces of the yogurt bark mixture before swirling in the fruit, and freeze those for a pup-friendly version. As always, check with your vet for any breed-specific concerns.

Is yogurt bark good for your gut?

Absolutely. When made with live culture yogurt and antioxidant rich fruit like blueberries, yogurt bark supports gut health. The probiotics in yogurt help balance your digestive system, while fiber and polyphenols in berries feed good bacteria. It’s a fun way to get those nutrients in especially for kids or picky eaters who shy away from traditional “health foods.”

Does blueberry go well with yogurt?

Without a doubt. Blueberry and yogurt are a classic flavor match tangy, sweet, creamy, and bright all at once. They’re perfect partners in smoothies, parfaits, muffins, and of course, frozen bark. Add lemon or vanilla for extra harmony, or stick with the basics. You really can’t go wrong.
