There are so many offers in the supermarkets for Muller yoghurts lately, that I find myself buying more and more each week. This week, the 6 pack chocolate sprinkle yoghuts were on special offer. The 6 pack contains 3 varieties: Vanilla and chocolate, Black cherry and Orange and chocolate. The variety I am going to review is the Orange and Chocolate.


As I have said, these are available in a multipack, but they can also be bought individually from the chilled section of the supermarket for about 56p each.


What impresses me about Muller light is the generous portion size. Usually yoghurts come in piffly little pots that leave you hungry after eating one. The Muller light yoghurts come in a generous 165g pot, which means they are more satisfying than your average yoghurt.


I am also impressed with the consistency of the yoghurt. I'm a fan of fruit corners, but find the yoghurts are quite thin. Muller light yoghurts are more creamy, with a much thicker consistency than you find in the other yoghurts in the Muller range.


The flavour of the Chocolate Orange variety is lovely. It is quite a subtle flavour, you are not hit with an overpowering bust of orange, but the flavour is distinct and unmistakable. The youghurt is interspersed with tiny flecks of chocolate. Although the flecks are only small, the chocolate flavour really comes through, blending with and comlpimenting the mild orange flavour. If you have a chocolate craving, this might just take the edge off it, though of course it doesn't compare to downing a chocolate bar!


The yoghurt comes in a round plastic tub with a peel off foil lid. Warning- it is the kind of lid that splurts under pressure and I have been splashed a couple of times opening these. The best thing to do is point it away from you when you open it! I find it useful to turn the pot upside down briefly before opening, to prevent splattering.


The nutritional information is on the pack, and is as follows per 100g:

Cal 51
Protein 4g
Carb 7.1g
of which sugars 6.6g
sugars naturally from milk 4.1g
Fat 0.5g
of which saturates 0.3g
Fibre 0.1g
Sodium 0.1g
Calcium 126mg, which is 26% of RDA per pot.


The pot and lid are recycleable. Muller dairy use 10% less packaging than they did in 2006.

These yoghurts make a lovely treat, and can be enjoyed at any time. I often have one for breakfast. They also make a great snack to fill you up and keep you going between meals. They contain no artificial colours or preservatives.
