A Touch of Yogurt is dedicated, as its name suggests, to frozen yogurt. The product is Miss Karen's, a widely distributed brand which was actually pioneered in Phoenix back in the 1970s. Customers expecting a hand-crafted product made on the premises (e.g., Arlecchino Gelateria in Arcadia) or a tangy product with a strong yogurt taste will probably not find either at A Touch of Yogurt. Nevertheless, those those looking for sweet, soft-serve frozen yogurt in the style popularized in the 1980s will be pleased.
A Touch of Yogurt offers a rotating list of flavors, publicized via its Web site and monthly printed calendars available in the store. Each day, eight flavors are available. Among the daily selections, six are regular frozen yogurt flavors such as banana coconut cream (right photo below), one is always a sugar-free variety, and another is always a sorbet. The lime sorbert (center photo below) is particularly good with an unexpected and pleasing tartness that takes the edge off a hot summer day. All flavors are available in a variety of sizes and can be accentuated with a choice of 40 dry or wet toppings.
The proprietors, a couple named John and Marcia, are exceedingly courteous and happy to offer samples to indecisive customers. There are a small number of tables inside the shop and some shaded tables outside on the sidewalk. A large outdoor plaza around the corner on the other side of the Renaissance Square office towers provides another venue for yogurt consumption. A Touch of Yogurt is open weekdays only from 10 AM until 4 PM.
