Choosing to live a healthier lifestyle comes with balance, and these bite-sized frozen strawberry yogurt bites are a delicious treat for whenever that sweet tooth starts to kick in. Lately we have been experimenting with some fun new yogurt treats at our house. The kids have been loving our Blueberry Swirl Frozen Yogurt and our Berry Cherry Frozen Yogurt Bites. Well, Valentine’s Day is around the corner so we busted out our heart molds and made these yogurt bites.
Share the fun and have the kids get involved in the kitchen by helping mix the ingredients and fill the molds for a midday snack activity. These are so easy to make and the kids absolutely love them!

Key Ingredients for these Frozen Strawberry Yogurt Bites
- Strawberries
- Yogurt
Easy enough, right? We used Greek yogurt, so we sweetened it a bit with honey, but you don’t have to.
Before making these frozen strawberry and yogurt bites, don’t forget to wash your strawberries! To wash strawberries you simply run them under cool water for 20 seconds and let dry.
Have fun when selecting and filling the molds, but just make sure they’re bite-sized! Any candy mold will work and come in many packs online for under $15.
What we love about strawberries
Besides being a family favorite fruit, strawberries are so juicy, flavorful, and perfect for snacking. They are loaded with wonderful heart health benefits, can help lower blood pressure, and are a low calorie food. Strawberries are packed with Vitamin C, fiber, and potassium!

In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine the chopped strawberries, Greek yogurt, and honey. Stir until all is well combined.

Thank you for showing how to arrange strawberries on a skewer. I am going to use mini marshmallows instead of blueberries.I am thinking of dipping marshmallows in chocolate.
Do these stay “set” after they’ve been frozen? Like, would I need to keep them frozen or they’ll lose their shape?
Hi Janice,
They will eventually melt if you leave them out. Think of them like an ice cream bar 🙂
