The Yasso Frozen Greek Yogurt Cups in Vanilla Caramel and Fudge Chip are a brand-new 12-pack of 3 fl oz mini cups at Costco — the same beloved Yasso brand, now in a tiny "snack drawer" cup format instead of bars. The box ships with six vanilla caramel cups and six fudge chip cups, and they live in the frozen dessert aisle near the Chipwich Thin Mints Ice Cream Sandwiches and the Jonny Pops Organic Rainbow Fruit Stacks. Only 80–90 calories per cup, with 4g of real protein — basically dessert that earns its place in your freezer.
Quick Take: New Yasso mini cups in two crowd-pleasing flavors — 80–90 calories of real Greek-yogurt dessert. Verdict: Buy. Scores: Taste ⅘ · Value ⅘ · Convenience 5/5 · Stockpile Score ⅘.
First impression
I picked these up because the NEW label caught my eye and we're already Yasso bar people at our house. The mini-cup format was the part that interested me — portion control built into the packaging. Open the box, find six of each flavor with their own little spoon-friendly tubs.
The first cup I opened was vanilla caramel, and the caramel swirl is real and visible on top of the cup — a glossy drizzle of actual caramel sauce running through creamy vanilla yogurt. It looks like dessert from a yogurt shop, not a diet product. Tasted like one too.
Price & value
The 12-pack runs around $13 to $16 at Costco, depending on warehouse. That works out to roughly $1.10 to $1.35 per cup. Compared to single Yasso bars at the grocery store ($1.50–$2 each, depending on the chain), this is meaningfully cheaper per serving — and the two-flavor variety in one box keeps the rotation interesting.
The math works for any household that does a nightly dessert and wants to keep portions in check. If you're a "one scoop of ice cream" kind of person who never finishes the pint, the per-cup format is doing real work here.
Nutrition snapshot
Vanilla Caramel (per 1 mini cup / 57g): 80 cal · 0.5g fat · 90mg sodium · 15g carbs · 13g sugar (10g added) · 4g protein. Notable: real caramel swirl, non-fat Greek yogurt base, lower-calorie than ice cream.
Fudge Chip (per 1 mini cup / 56g): 90 cal · 1.5g fat (1g saturated) · 15g carbs · 11g sugar (9g added) · 4g protein. Notable: chocolatey flakes (not chunks), slightly more saturated fat from the cocoa coating.
Real protein at 4g per cup is the headline — that's where the Greek yogurt base earns its keep. Sugar is moderate; this is still a dessert.
Taste, quality & how to eat them
The vanilla caramel is the more crowd-pleasing flavor. Creamy non-fat Greek yogurt with a real caramel swirl that hits sweet without being overpowering. The yogurt tang sits in the background, just enough to keep it from tasting like straight ice cream. The caramel is the star — it's a proper invert-cane-sugar caramel sauce, not a chemical-tasting drizzle.
The fudge chip is the chocolate option for the household — vanilla Greek yogurt base with chocolatey flakes mixed throughout. Important to know: these are flakes, not chunks. Thin, crunchy coatings that snap when you bite into them, more like the chocolate shell on a Magnum bar than the chocolate chips in cookie dough ice cream. Different texture, real chocolate flavor, satisfying in a different way.
Both eat creamy, not icy, which is the Yasso signature. For eating, pop one out of the freezer about 2 minutes before serving if you like a softer scoop. Eat straight from the cup with a small spoon. Don't try to microwave — Greek yogurt-based frozen treats get weird when warmed (they separate).
If you want something different, scoop one into a bowl and top with berries, or stir in a spoonful of homemade frozen mango sorbet for a layered fruit-and-chocolate combo.
They keep in the freezer for months, but don't let them sit out and refreeze — the texture will never be the same. Eat or back in the freezer within 5 minutes.
What other shoppers are saying
Costco shoppers who've tried the new cups love the portion-control format specifically — being able to grab a 90-calorie dessert without committing to a full pint is the whole appeal. The most common compliment is the texture: creamy, not icy, like a real dessert.
The most common complaint is the cup size — at 3 fl oz, some people wish they were bigger, especially given the per-cup price. A few shoppers also note that the fudge chip flakes can sometimes settle, so the top of the cup may have more chocolate than the bottom. Stir before eating if that bothers you.
Who it's for & best uses
This is for households trying to do "dessert every night" without the calorie hit of full ice cream — parents who want a kid-friendly frozen treat that isn't pure sugar, people on a moderate-calorie diet who still want dessert, anyone with a household full of ice cream-loving kids. Skip if you want a truly indulgent ice cream experience (this isn't that), if you have a dairy allergy, or if you specifically need full ice cream's higher calorie count for a reason.
A few uses worth trying: a simple after-dinner dessert straight from the cup; topped with fresh berries and a sprinkle of granola for a parfait moment; or pair with a homemade Ninja Creami Mango Sorbet for a chocolate-and-fruit combo on a warm night.

The scores
- Taste — ⅘. Real caramel in one cup, real chocolatey flakes in the other. Both satisfying. Loses a point only because they're lower-fat than full ice cream, so the richness isn't quite there.
- Value — ⅘. Per-cup price beats grocery store Yasso; mini-cup variety pack is a fair deal.
- Convenience — 5/5. Individually portioned, no scooping, kid-grab-friendly.
- Stockpile Score — ⅘. Long freezer life, two flavors, household-friendly. Half a point off because the box can disappear faster than you expect.
Verdict: Buy
A solid Buy for any household that wants dessert on rotation without the calorie commitment of full ice cream. The Greek yogurt base does real work — it makes them feel like a treat without the heavy aftermath. Two flavors in one box is a smart move for families.
Not a Repeat-Buy in the strict sense because we like to rotate through different frozen treats, but every time these are in the freezer, the box disappears. As Yasso themselves say on the box: "looks like the freezer is the new snack drawer."
