Diamond Food Indonesia put a sensorial spin on classic yogurt pouches with Biokul! To Go with Jelly Balls. Comprised of roughly 55% yogurt and 5% coconut cream, these grab-and-go yogurt pouches are not just a convenient way to fuel up on the go, they're also a source of four probiotic cultures and fiber from polydextrose.
Biokul! To Go with Jelly Balls debuted in three varieties: Brown Sugar, Marshmallow and Yuzu, each pouch containing 80 to 90 calories and nine to 10 grams of sugar, and two grams of fat and four grams of protein.
