Frozen Treats News
The media, bloggers in particular, love them some frozen yogurt. And you know what they (we) love even more? Frozen yogurt wars. Combine that with the current probiotic craze, and we have the makings of a media yo-gasm.
And DC will stand on the sidelines of this big city fad no longer, because it looks like we're poised for our very own fro-yo fight.
TangySweet is now open in Dupont, and lives up to its name. The yogurt is, you guessed it, tangy and sweet. (Georgetown's SweetGreen is also peddling the tart stuff, but salad is their bread and butter.) And Mr. Yogato followed soon after TangySweet.
But what's that on the horizon? LA-export Pinkberry is supposedly on its way, and a Canadian fro-yo chain, Yogen Früz, plans to open 16 stores in the area.
TangySweet should have a hometown advantage since it's a locally owned, small business. And owner Aaron Gordon told DCist he may open a few more shops around town.
The fro-yo wars may be upon us, but good ol' artisanal gelato is not going to take this lying down.
The brand new Bethesda Row outpost of Dolcezza is up and running. Also entering the frozen treats fray in DC will be Pitango Gelato, according to the Washington Business Journal. Joining the Baltimore original will be two planned locations: a 500-square-foot shop in the Metropole condo building at the corner of 15th and P streets NW and one at Reston Town Center. Like Dolcezza, Pitango relies on local farms for many of its ingredients. And finally, Boccato Gelatos opened recently in Arlington. The lucuma flavor sounds very intriguing.
