Advantages: Fruity and tasty

Disadvantages: Aspartame

I've run out of Muller rice, I bought a load recently when 'Buy 4 get 4 Free' offers were on at various supermarkets. I used these for my breakfast at work so I wouldn't be tempted to snack. Now the offer is over. I begrudge paying 54p per pot - tight maybe - credit crunching - definitely.

So I went to my local Tesco and tried to find an alternative and I find Muller light yogurts at 3 for £1, I'll have some of that I thought to myself. I picked up a selection including the limited edition Summer Berries with Elderberry.
I love fruity yogurts and despite the presence of Aspartame (one of my pet distastes) I was pleasantly surprised along with saving about 120 calories per pot, it was very tasty.

This yogurt is fat free (hurrah) but does have sugar and sweeteners (boo). There is 8% fruit in each pot which contains strawberries, blackberries and raspberries. The elderberry comes from juice which is added to the yogurt.
There is a teeny 88 calories added to each 175g pot, which makes it a pretty healthy snack. They also let us know that there is 128mg of calcium per 100g

This is the second limited edition to join Muller's light yogurts. Released in April this is Muller being seasonal (a lot of what we hear on the TV) and it replaces Lemon and Passionfruit flavour. This will be advertised heavily in slimming magazines and women's magazines to support the launch. I have not seen any advertising, but you may well have.

This flavour will be available until the autumn when it will be replaced with another new flavour, so grab them while you can. You will spot these by the slightly different foil lid to the usual Muller Light Yogurst, this one has black on it and is covered in berries.

~The Taste~

Yum. Peeling back the foil layer revealed a purple creamy yogurt with pips in. I love to see the pips then I know it's real fruit. It tastes lovely, I'm not sure what elderberry tastes like, but all the flavours of the berries mixed together gives a subtle tang to the yogurt. Aspartame is present in this yogurt, but doesn't affect the taste too much like in other 'light' products I have tried. I have another one in the fridge and can't wait to have it (maybe in the morning). The yogurt, as always with Muller is fresh and light, the fruit adds a new dimension to the taste. This is available at an RRP of 54p, but offers are usually on such as 3 for £1 etc.

Summary: Berry Berry fruity yogurt !
