Frozen Juneberry Yogurt Clusters
βοΈ Frozen Juneberry Yogurt Clusters: Tart, Creamy & Addictive
These Frozen Juneberry Yogurt Clusters are the snack you didnβt know you were missing. Each bite bursts with tart berry flavor, creamy yogurt, and a gentle crunch from a thin chocolate shell. They’re antioxidant-packed, irresistibly poppable, and ideal for stashing in the freezer for mid-afternoon cravings or summer entertaining.
Did you know? Juneberries (Amelanchier alnifolia) have more protein than any other commonly grown berry and are rich in anthocyanins, the same antioxidant compounds found in red wine and blueberries. Their firm texture and cherry-almond flavor make them perfect for freezing β without losing structure or taste.
At Deeβs Nutz and Berries, weβre planting thousands of juneberry shrubs, and our first harvests will begin around 2028. While weβll offer them fresh, theyβre also incredible frozen β especially when transformed into no-guilt indulgences like this one. Visit our event calendar to see when weβll launch frozen fruit tastings and farm-made snacks like these.

- For a crunchy twist, roll clusters in crushed granola or chopped nuts before dipping.
