Golden Spoon

Golden Spoon is a frozen yogurt brand unlike any other. For one thing, Golden Spoon frozen yogurt emphasizes health and flavor, so that its products are sweet enough to satisfy customers’ indulgence while offering health benefits to remove any guilt. Golden Spoon’s pomegranate and blueberry flavor, for example, is packed with antioxidants and fibers that lower risk of heart disease and boost immune systems. To Golden Spoon, creating frozen yogurt is a fine art, and their yogurt chefs use the highest quality, natural ingredients, including real fruit and real milk, while minimizing water and sugar, resulting in the purest, tastiest, richest flavors in frozen yogurt.

Golden Spoon Franchise Opportunities – History

Golden Spoon began in 1981 as an outgrowth of Yogurt and Things, a health food store in Tustin, California, acquired by Golden Spoon founder Jeff Barnes in 1980. Within a year, Barnes focused on frozen yogurt, with the goal of creating a healthier frozen dessert than anything else on the market. In 1983, after three successful years, the Golden Spoon brand was born. By 1986, Golden Spoon began to manufacture many of its top-selling flavors, and by 2002 had more than 50 custom flavors to its name, which grew to more than 80 flavors by 2008. Today, Golden Spoon has stores throughout California, Nevada and Arizona, as well as locations in Japan and the Philippines.
