More Joy Across Texas and into New Mexico!

Even though it’s is the coldest and shortest month of the year, February was full with excitement as we more than doubled our store count with our launch into Market Street through our new distribution partner, KeHE.

In this months newsletter, we are going to begin our ‘Story Series’. Each month, we will unpack a little bit of TruJoy Yogurts short history so that you can learn more our products and the intentionality that goes into everything we do at TruJoy. We are going to start this series with a little bit on Classic Tart.

Story Series - The Origins of Classic Tart

Originally I had no intention of including ‘Classic Tart’ in TruJoy Yogurts starting lineup. I thought that it was plain, boring and unoriginal. But my sister, Abby, said that she would not let me embarrass myself by launching TruJoy Yogurt without Classic Tart. She said that it is what the people would want and that there was nothing like it on the market today - per usual, she was correct on both accounts!

The beauty of Classic Tart lies its simplicity. It is delicate, it is rich, it is creamy and has just enough bite to keep things interesting. You can use it as a base for a smoothy, top it with fruit and your favorite crunchy bite for something on the sweet side or make a savory dessert out of it with a drizzle of good olive oil and some flakey sea salt. When you start with Tart, you truly are only limited by your imagination!

What Classic Tart is is not obvious to everybody - some folks ask if it is some sort of fruit pie or wonder if there are little pieces of French pastry mixed in. But if you grew up frequenting soft serve FroYo spots, no explanation is needed! It’s one of those things… If you know, you know! It is my favorite flavor to sample, not only because it is truly unique but it also evokes such a surprised response when people realize that something so simple can be so delicious.

In a world where we tend to overthink and overcomplicate nearly everything, true joy often comes from simplest of all things - let Classic Tart serve as a little reminder that there is no reason to over complicate things. More often than not, less is more!

I’m glad that I listened to Abby on this one (the one really calling the shots at TruJoy, truthfully). If you are a Tart lover and happen to see Abby out and about you can thank her!

Launch Updates

It has been magical seeing TruJoy Yogurt pop up in freezers in new markets. Thanks to our new distribution partners at KeHE, walking into new stores and seeing our Frozen Greek Yogurt in new places and new towns feels as if we waved a wand and it just appeared. But in reality, there is much more to it. There are so many people that you or I will ever get to meet, know or thank - from forklift drivers to store managers and everyone in between - who make it all happen. Rolling into March, we will be hitting the road from the D/FW Metroplex to Carlsbad, NM to meet new customers and welcome them to the TruJoy Tribe!

And now that our products are available through KeHE, we are going to be able to make TruJoy available at numerous independant grocers across Texas and neighboring states! To keep up with where you can find TruJoy, you can always link to the Find Us page on our website!

Thank you all - from Dairymen to Pint Crushers - who make working to spread TruJoy possible. Waking up every day and working to fill freezers with TruJoy brings me true joy!

The Lagniappe

Since we had an extra day this month, I thought i’d add a little lagniappe to this months newsletter with this article by Americas Test Kitchen. Granted it does not specifically talk about Frozen Greek Yogurt… it does however do a great job of summarizing the history of and the differences in yogurts from around this wonderful world. As fellow yogurt lovers, I thought you might appreciate it!
