Chobani has expanded its US high-protein portfolio with the launch of Chobani 20g Protein Flip Greek Yogurt, combining Greek yogurt with separate crunchy mix-ins.

Each single-serve product contains 20g of protein derived from milk and the accompanying fruit and nut ingredients, without the use of added protein powders. The range is also lactose-free and contains no added sugar or artificial ingredients, as well as providing probiotics and vitamin B12.

The products use Chobani’s strained Greek yogurt and pair it with ingredients including freeze-dried fruit, nuts, cocoa pieces and crunchy crisps.

The range will launch in four flavours:

• Tropical Mango Coconut – Mango and pineapple Greek yogurt with freeze-dried pineapple and mango, toasted coconut and crisps

• Strawberry Banana Cashew – Strawberry and banana Greek yogurt with freeze-dried strawberries, cashews and crisps

• Almond Coconut Chocolate – Coconut Greek yogurt with roasted almonds, cocoa chunks and crisps

• Pomegranate Pistachio Chocolate – Pomegranate Greek yogurt with pistachios, cocoa chunks and crisps

Chobani's chief innovation officer, Niel Sandfort, said: “We saw an opportunity to take everything people love about Chobani Flip experience and evolve it for those seeking more protein from natural sources – pairing high-quality protein with natural mix-ins to create a uniquely satisfying experience. The result is a smile-inducing snack that delivers on satiety, functionality and fun – without compromise.”

Chobani 20g Protein Flip will be available at retailers across the US from August, priced at $2.49 per pot.
