More for Frozen Yogurt Fans

In response to a recent blog about frozen yogurt places in Sacramento, I thought I'd tune those students that live in Roseville and Rocklin into some amazing places to get fro-yo in our area. The places that are my favorite allow you to choose your yogurt flavor and how much you'd like in your cup, and then you pile on whatever toppings you fancy.

There are two Big Spoons in the Roseville/Rocklin area, with one being on the corner of Roseville Parkway and Galleria in the new Fountains shopping center, and the other on Sunset and Park, in the shopping center with McDonalds. Like Susie Q said, they offer an array of frozen yogurt and assorted candy, fruit and sauces to fill your cup with, and then you are charged by the ounce. It is relatively inexpensive, as I usually choose the medium size cup and go a little nuts with the amount of topics I choose, but it is usually under $5.

At the corner of Sunrise and Cirby in Roseville is Yog Yog, which is pretty much the same concept as Big Spoon, with the choosing of the yogurt and toppings and charging by the ounce. Unlike Big Spoon, Yog Yog has a selection of fresh fruit, which is something Susie Q mentioned looking for in an earlier blog. Yog Yog offers fresh strawberries, mango, kiwi, and pineapple, just to name a few.

I must say though, when I walk into one of these places I'm looking to do a little calorie damage with things like chocolate raisins, chocolate chips and a little something that Big Spoon likes to call Hard Hat, which is something that winds up on my concoction every time I visit. Hard Hat is awesome, because the moment it comes in contact with the yogurt, it hardens into this delectable chocolate shell. I think I'm feeling the need for some frozen yogurt, pronto!
