Menchies My Way & Giveaway (WINNER CHOSEN)

For so long there was no where to get frozen yogurt in Regina; then all of a sudden places started to spring up.  Menchie's is by far my favourite place to get froyo, as you've likely noticed in previous posts.  Christopher and I frequent our two, local Menchie's shops quite often, and whenever I spend time with my nephew, it seems we end up there.


When the people at Menchie's contacted me saying they wanted some of Canada's top media personalities (awww, shucks) to partner with them this summer as a Menchie's Ambassador, I jumped at the fantastic and tasty opportunity!

Who would say no to a summer of free froyo?  Not me.  You can get free froyo too, with the #MenchiesMyWay contest I'll get to below.

Today we went to our closest Menchie's at 3425 Quance Street in Regina (there is also a store at 1010 Pasqua Street) to make our mix!  The flavours offered are always changing as they have 150 flavours total.


Then there are the toppings!


The combination possibilities are endless.  That being said, I tend to be a creature of habit, and I almost always get the purely tart flavour.  But, when I saw that Menchie's had a new Oreo flavour, I decided to step out of my froyo comfort zone and try that; it was a great choice.


As a Menchie's Ambassador I have the tough job of creating my very own #MenchiesMyWay creation.

Behold ...

#MenchiesMyWay:  GOLDEN CRUNCH


My #MenchiesMyWay: GOLDEN CRUNCH creation has the delicious, not-too-sweet, new Oreo frozen yogurt, topped with cheesecake pieces, chocolate chips, toasted coconut, and boba balls.

Let's have a closer look ...


It totally hit the spot this afternoon.  I'm excited to go back and try different combinations all summer.

We do not have Menchies here in Minneapolis (to my knowledge) but we do have other self-serve fro-yo chains. I love going there as it's fun to try different flavors and different toppings. My must-have topping is Reese's peanut butter cups!
