Tutti Frutti Frozen Yogurt

Who doesn’t love fro-​yo?! Tutti Frutti is a pretty solid go-​to for your fix.
This location has tons of seating, including a few seats «at the bar» that faces out to Whyte Avenue. It’s all downstairs though so it’s not wheelchair or stroller friendly. I always love to score the couches if possible!
Toppings galore from fresh fruit to candy, chocolate, sauces and more are available for your masterpiece!
You can pick from many different sizes of cups and a handful of frozen yogurts. The flavours are often rotating and there’s usually a good selection of chocolates, fruits and more. Last time there was a soy option available. I wish they had a few more varieties available but with all of the toppings available, you can really make it whatever you want!

I do love me some froyo, and when Tutti Frutti first showed up on Whyte Ave a few years ago I frequented this place way too often. I still enjoy it and check in once and a while, but I find they don’t cycle their flavours as much as they used to and I don’t often find anything I want to try. They do have a really good assortment of toppings from your typical stuff to some exotic treats to keep things interesting. They also did some renovations recently that make it look very trendy inside.
Unfortunately, I have been pretty grossed out on numerous occasions by the state of their washroom, which has at times been disturbingly dirty considering how slow it was in the store at the time.

Tutti fruitti used to be my «go to» fro-​yo place, however now, the don’t give you the sample cups for self serving prior to making your purchase. They now require staff to pull the samples for you. This can get cumbersome and time consuming when it’s busy and likely just deters people from getting samples. This is one of the things I loved about going to tutti fruitti– being able to try all the different kinds before I make my selection.
Even though this has stopped me from trying new flavours, I still think they have better quality fro-​yo than their competitors.

I’ve only visited this place once, but I was pleasantly surprised! Not only was my favourite flavour not the flavour I expected it to be, but the number of wonderful Asian toppings that were available truly made my dessert that much more delectable. Certainly froyo isn’t an everyday type of treat but it’s a great occasional dessert and I very much enjoy the fun of this type of store.
When I was there there was only one staff member on duty which was a little sad as there were some kids running around the store and making a mess (as their parent was letting them do things like play with the frozen yogurt dispensers for fun among other things) so that was disappointing. But otherwise my visit was great and I totally want to try the waffles here sometime too… perhaps someday if I don’t have a huge meal first!

I’m not exactly sure why Tutti Frutti has decided to start selling yogurt bubble teas… It takes the server a long time to make them, and they’re pretty pricey ($ 5.00). I went in today on my coffee break and the girl working took about 5 minutes to take my order… She was making a bubble tea. If it takes so much time and energy to make, why have it on the menu? Or perhaps staff need to be taught proper preparation methods as well as proper customer service.

It took me a while to review this place because I used to work here so I naturally have a bit of a bias and an excuse for anything that could be wrong in the store. (Dirty tables? Well it gets busy and there’s usually only 2 people working — one cashier, one doing food prep. Machines aren’t working? Honestly there isn’t even anything you can really do other than push buttons and hope it works. Toppings are mixed? You try keeping things separated when little kids are in there going buckwild and flinging things around. Even adults can’t seem to get the food in the bowl 90% of the time.)
Anyways, this location is my favourite. It’s got the most selection for both yogurt flavours and toppings. It’s got wifi. It’s got a kids corner. They’ve even got brand new couches! It’s a good place to come, eat some froyo, sit around and catch up with your friends.
The fruit selection is usually fresh. Occasionally the strawberries can be a little questionable and mushy. The mangos are usually underripe though, so if you aren’t into super sour mangos don’t get those. The toppings area is pretty clean. Again, it’s incredibly difficult to keep everything separate when it’s so close together and people are making it rain toppings everywhere, so bear that in mind.
All in all, it’s a wonderful place to go for dessert where you can feel ever so slightly better about choosing the «healthy» frozen treat. Little kids absolutely love coming here, so don’t be shy about bringing the family! (You may want to extra monitor what they are putting in their bowl. My little brother can pack that thing full in the blink of an eye). Stop by, check it out and enjoy!
Also!!! There are sample cups available up at the front! All you need to do is ask the cashier for it. Please, please, please don’t be an unsanitary heathen and stick your fingers or spoons in the yogurt. Whoever goes after you is going to have your germs all over their food and that just isn’t cool. Pun intended.

Great place for a treat after all that walking up and down Whyte Ave. I like sitting up top and people watching. My fav was blueberry and red velvet. Yummy.

I will start by saying I really like Tutti Frutti. I’ve been to other locations (Windermere, Maui, etc.) and it’s a consistently good experience.
This location recently added Bubble Tea that I thought I’d try.
The bubble tea was OK… but the service SUCKED. I was the only one in there, and was followed by two other people before someone even came out from the back.
The order took over 5 minutes to process… way too long for having at least two staff working and no other orders in front of me.
I may be back, but it certainly won’t be a lunchtime destination.

Love this place so much!!! It’s so great! They are always changing up their flavors, and you can get sample cups to try before you buy! They charge by weight so you can get as much or as little as you like! Plus you get to be the master of your own creations with their self serve yogurt machines and toppings you can add! I love that they also always have soy and sorbet flavors as well! TF can’t be beat!

So, I in no way believe that «fro-​yo» is healthy, I think it may be just shy of healthier then ice cream, but that’s besides the point. No one seeks out an ice cream, gelato nor fro-​yo place for its health inducing benefits. No no, you go because it is simply delightful and a place like Tutti Frutti is delightful as well as super fun!
Being able to DIY for various tasks in life is intolerable, but for some reason those very pedestrian of task, such as ‘checking out your own groceries at the store’ or ‘pouring your own cup of soft serve’ is just exhilarating and oh so much fun! It’s like when you were 5 years old with the Fisher Price lawn mower! With the fun of doing it yourself, a ton of cool (and a few odd/​scary) toppings that go onto a variety of flavours, this place is a great 20 minute getaway! Just do your waistline a favour and don’t come too often!

I love fresh fruit and frozen yogurt. So naturally, I’m smitten by Tutti Frutti!
Always lots of fresh fruit options, which I have found is not always the case at the other froyo joints in town.
Pleasantly surprised by how inexpensive it is too!

Tutti Frutti just opened up not far from my house (which is awesome because it is the only frozen yogurt place within a decent distance now) and i absolutely love it! I’ve been there enough times that i’m pretty sure they just know me now. I love the yogurt choices, they switch them up often enough that i get a little excited every time i go in! I usually still stick with my half vanilla half pineapple combo though.
I haven’t been to any other location, but my ONLY complaint (specifically about the Northgate location) is a couple of the people working there are not very friendly. At least in my few interactions with them. I don’t know names, and i wouldn’t post them even if i did, but one is a younger male and he just does not seem to enjoy his job whatsoever. Never once have i seen him smile, or tell me to have a nice day while i’m leaving. Maybe thats a petty thing to mention, but it just takes the whole experience down a couple notches when you encounter relatively negative people.
Other than that 1 little complaint (which isn’t even about the yogurt itself) i LOVE tutti fruitti :)

Whoa. My search for amazing frozen yogurt just keeps getting better. I really thought I had found the best at Pinkberry, but Tutti Frutti has led to my Pinkberry rating going down a star (sorry Pinky).
I’d say Tutti Frutti is what frozen yogurt should be. It’s not too sweet; the flavours are delicious, and the wide range of topping are great. (Thank you for gummi frogs!)
Even though the green tea and chocolate velvet tasted great, my favourite was plain. It had that sour taste I just love to mix with sweet toppings like fruit and some chocolate syrup. So good!
I thought the prices were really reasonable too. This place is packed with evil goodness: you are warned!

I eat an embarrassing amount of ice cream so after having Tutti Frutti recommended to me by multiple people, I knew that I had to try it.
The yogurt itself is delicious. I love the variety of flavours and how they frequently change them. It’s also really nice to see that they offer soy alternatives for those who can’t have dairy. I made sure to try one of those flavours and the quality was no different. My only criticism with the yogurt is that it’s a little strange they don’t always have vanilla. You would think that since vanilla is a good compliment to most other flavours, they would have it permanently. Strange.
I think they need to offer smaller cup choices. The smallest one is still pretty large. I know how this game works: they want the cup to look empty so you keep adding yogurt even though you already have more sugar than a single person should have in a week. I could see this tactic being especially effective on first-​time visitors and honestly I find it a little deceptive.
Overall though, Tutti Frutti is a fun, delicious concept and I will definitely be returning in the near future.

A self-​serve, pay-​by-​the-​weight, frozen yogurt bar? Who thought of this, and can I buy them all of the beers?
You start at one end of the shop, and grab a medium or large cup. Next, you surf by seven frogurt machines, each featuring a pair of flavours (which can be swirled using the middle lever!), and mix-​and-​match which ever yogurts you want. Then you move on to the topping bar which has everything from fruit, to breakfast cereal, to nuts, to gummies to chocolatey syrup. Next, you weigh in, and pay the nice person at the till. And finally — and most importantly — you eat delicious frozen treats.
The flavours are often changed up — I’ve seen the same ones crop back up, but not often twice in a row. I think the only exception is the TF Tart, which I believe may be their signature flavour. The toppings also change up regularly, so you’ll usually be able to try something new every time.
In particular, I’m a big fan of the peanut butter frogurt, the peanut butter banana soy frogurt and the butterscotch frogurt. I usually mix up my toppings depending on what I’ve got, but one of my buddies can’t stop with the Cap’n Crunch and the Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
Tutti Frutti is a great alternative to Marble Slab, and is pretty well in the same price range — expect to pay around $ 6 for your frogurt, but the more you fill your bowl the more you’ll pay.
The ambiance is perfect, too. Tutti Frutti is a brightly lit, friendly place that looks fun the moment you come down stairs. You feel welcome to get your yogurt and sit down to enjoy it.
I come here often, and I highly recommend it.

I’m the kinda guy who always creates a bottle neck in every froyo joint I’ve been to, thanks to my exceptional indecisiveness. Tutti Frutti just ups the ante — why? They have a lot of excellent and delicious flavors to choose from and I’m so very confused… EVERY time I go there!
I think what does it for me is the really fresh taste of the froyo here. They’ve just hit that goldilocks zone of excellent smoothness, not too much sourness and just the right amount of sweetness along with incredibly tasty flavors that seem to have a natural origin.
The toppings are also pretty well done and while you can create a million combinations (actually, if you want to get technical about it I calculated and it comes to 10 followed by 36 zeros of combinations), my favorite combo remains rather simple — I like the whole tropical angle so I usually go with a coconut froyo and toppings of mango, mango flavored tapioca and some other fancy things in that régime.
Let’s not leave out those with allergies. They have soy froyo for those lactose intolerant folk. It’s the best of its kind, so 5 stars for me.

I love this place! I finally went for the first time last month and I liked it so much that I came back for a few consecutive days.
I like the fact that you control the serving size. You want to go to town with toppings? Go for it. You want just yogurt and no toppings? No problemo. You are the master of your own domain. I especially like the Asian-​style toppings like mochi balls and boba.
As for the yogurt itself, there are quite a few flavours on tap. The plain one reminds me of the tangy homemade yogurt I had as a kid (made by an über-​hippie friend of my mom). I’m not a big fan of the soy-​based ones, mainly because of the soy aftertaste. But it’s good that there are non-​dairy options. Marshmallow and banana flavours are particularly delicious. My only complaint? Every time I’ve been there, it seems like they are out of at least half of the flavours.
Ah well. Freakin’ love this place.

Since Edmonton is going through a rare heat wave, it made sense to duck into Tutti Frutti during the weekend on Whyte. I’ve been excited to try out this place because I am a fan of froyo from McDonald’s to Yogen Fruz and Pinkberry.
However, this is the first «self-​serve» one I’ve tried. I wasn’t super adventurous for an Asian, as I stuck with the taro flavor and topped it off with classic bubble tea faves like boba and coconut jelly. Still, the flavor delivered and it was rich, creamy and I love that you can fill your tub with as little or as much froyo as you want.
It is sort of weird it’s underground facility without a readily available street-​facing patio, but it felt okay to duck into an air conditioned space when you need a respite from the heat.
I’ll be back to try out other flavour combinations!

I think these types of places are an awesome idea. I really enjoy the self-​serve style and the pay by weight pricing method. There seems to be more flavours available here than I have found at Twisted Yogurt but I find the yogurt to be slightly less flavourful.
There are about a dozen flavours of yogurt to choose from and a wide variety of toppings (I did not see maraschino cherries though :(). The prices seem reasonable to me because you pay for what you take (and for me that’s not usually much). I find the portions at other frozen yogurt/​ice cream places to be far too large for me and I can rarely finish — this method helps cut down on waste too — bonus!
The location is very accessible and since I spend a good amount of time wandering Whyte I’m sure I will find myself wandering in here pretty regularly this summer.

So many choices! Tutti Frutti offers about ten different flavours of frozen yogurt, including flavour twists. Then, you can add as many toppings as you want. Payment is by the ounce. There are two sizes, both resembling small buckets.
I decided to try a few flavours straight up, no twist: chocolate, taro, and green tea. The green tea was sweet and subtle; the taro reminded me of bubble tea; and the chocolate was very rich and could almost pass for ice cream.
For toppings, I had small spoonfuls of cashews, Smarties, and granola. The toppings were all fresh and blended well with my flavour selections.
My treat came to less than $ 5, which was a decent price considering the size and what a single scoop of ice cream costs these days. My only problem was being overwhelmed by choices — I’ll have to go back soon to try another combination!
