Can store-bought yogurt beat homemade yogurt?
Homemade yogurt with fruit! Just look at the freshness oozing out of the picture! Can a store-bought yogurt beat that?
You're looking at an exquisite homemade probiotic fruity yogurt treat (made with our probiotic Yogurt Plus starter)
One of the primary perks of homemade yogurt is the ability to control what goes into it. Unlike store-bought varieties, which often contain added sugars, artificial sweeteners, and additives to enhance flavour, homemade yogurt allows you to fully customise your yogurt treat.
A DIYed yogurt:
- has no artificial sweeteners and no added sugars
- has no additives or unrecognisable ingredients
- is super fresh
- is a wholesome food
- has a living flavour
- is probiotic-rich
- has been only minimally processed
- is fermented for an optimal duration without any shortcuts
Enjoy a yogurt treat without the extra sugar!
Excessive sugar consumption has been linked to various health issues, including obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Lowering sugar content promotes healthier eating habits and supports overall wellness.
Homemade yogurt is also fresher and more wholesome than commercial versions. Commercial yogurts often undergo extensive processing, which can degrade their nutritional value and beneficial bacteria present in the yogurt. A yogurt you make yourself, by contrast, is activated with live cultures that preserve its probiotic properties and maximise its nutritional benefits.
To make the treat in the picture, just top a bowl of yogurt (that you made yourself) with fruit. Cutting Edge Cultures have many more fun and easy yogurt recipes here
If you enjoy a contrast of flavours, then berries are fantastic toppings. They add that special zing to the treat. Banana and berries, for example, are a real classic, and for a reason!
