Regardless of whether they have spelt “yoghurt” the American way on their sign, without the “H”; or asking you to choose your “flava” like a Craig David song once inside, Flavalanche on Park Street is the latest business to open in Bristol that satisfies the current craze for froyo.
For those still blissfully unaware, froyo is frozen yoghurt – a delicacy which first came to Bristol with AngelBerry in the Imperial Retail Park in Hartcliffe and later on Broad Quay in the centre, and also Froyo2go on Staple Hill High Street.
The premise is simple: fill your tub with as much yoghurt as you want in a variety of flavas flavours. Then add your toppings, including hundreds and thousands, diced Reese’s Pieces, sliced pieces of fruit, and pobbles – the quite remarkable agar jelly beads filled with fruit juice which burst in your mouth that Willy Wonka would be proud of.
Coffee is from Clifton Coffee and there are plans to introduce that other current craze, bubble tea, in the next few months, in a spacious shop which has some of the funkiest seating in Bristol:
Flavalanche, 54 Park Street, Clifton, Bristol, BS1 5JN. 0117 316 9905.
