Danone recently launched a new lineup of Oykos Whip'n'Mix mousses that allow consumers to enjoy Greek-style yogurt as dessert. In recent years, Greek yogurt has become a healthy breakfast and snack option for many consumers. Now Danone is trying to show consumers that the protein-rich yogurt can also serve as a healthy after-dinner treat.
The new Whip'n'Mix mousses consists of whipped Greek-style yogurt layered with a sweet fruit compote. There are three fruit flavors to choose from, including blueberry, strawberry and cherry. By combining a lighter yogurt base with fresh fruit, the new line is meant to replace other unhealthy desserts. The yogurts also come in handy single-serve portions, which make it easier for consumers to indulge without worrying that they may be consuming too much.
The new whipped mousses are ideal for health-conscious consumers interested in replacing nutrient-poor desserts with better-for-you options.
