With 15 flavors to choose from and the power to serve themselves any or all of them, frozen yogurt-lovers now have a new go-to spot in Victor.
“It’s all about personal choice and satisfaction,” said Wendy Santmyer, owner of the new Yo! Yogurt in Phoenix Mills Plaza. “You can choose your favorite single flavor or mix and match to make your own creation. There is something for everyone!”
Customers pay by the ounce, and can indulge as little — or as much — as they want. Santmyer, who opened her shop just last week, said she’ll keep the flavors rotating frequently and will try to honor requests for particular flavors.
“We have a variety of toppings to add to your treat,” said Santmyer. “We have candy pieces, freshly cut fruit daily, cheesecake bites, granola, sauces and many more.”
While savoring their cold desserts, guests can also make use of free Wi-Fi and TV, and relax inside or outside on the shaded deck.
Santmyer took time in between customers to answer a few questions about her new store.
