JCOOL Yogurt, S$3.80.
Hmm, fancy a fro-yo with your donut and coffee? J.CO claims their JCOOL Yogurt is 100% fat-free! How nice of them to offer a healthy, guilt-free dessert alongside their sugar-, fat-, and calorie-laden donuts! Heh, do you spot the irony?
Anyway, here’s the verdict: the JCOOL Yogurt is surprisingly ultra smooth, creamy, and tart! Normally, I prefer something less sour, but that day was horribly hot and humid, so its zesty tang really hit the spot! Plus I liked how creamy it is, just like a rich soft-serve ice-cream.
At S$3.80 for a small cup, it’s pricey! But you do get a choice from a limited variety of toppings. Other brands charge an average of S$1.00 per topping,
Actually, I’ve been slow to embrace the frozen yogurt fad. Lately, I managed to try most of the popular brands: Frolick, Red Mango, and Yoguru. All are good in their own distinctive ways!
It all depends on the mood. If I want tangy and airy, Frolick’s my choice. If I want something creamier and less tart, I’ll go for Red Mango or Yoguru.
Hey, I just realized, the JCOOL is a close homophone of my initial and last name: J.Khoo!

yum yum, i love froyo, esp the soft serve kind. the tub ones from supermarkets just don’t quite cut it for me

Evan, the JCOOL is very nice and creamy, but also very TART. You’ve been warned!
ohhh… whenever i’m in singapore (or KL or Jakarta for that matter) i make it a point to eat some of their donuts. i’ll have to save room for the yogurt, too, now.
Hi suzy, yes, the fro-yo will be a cool, refreshing finish to a sugary donut!
