 Q & A

Q1: Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek?
A: You can, but bites will be icier and softer. Greek yogurt gives the best creamy texture.


Q2: How long do they last?
A: Up to 1 month frozen in an airtight container.


Q3: Why did my bites get icy?
A:

  • Yogurt was low-fat
  • Too much compote
  • Not enough sweetener (sugar lowers ice crystals)

Q4: Can I make them without cooking the blueberries?
A: Yes, but cooked compote gives better swirl, flavor, and texture.


Q5: Are these good for kids?
A: Yes—great alternative to ice cream or candy.


Q6: Can I turn this into popsicles?
A: Absolutely. Pour into popsicle molds and freeze 4–5 hours.
