Costco has added a new frozen treat to its shelves from a brand customers have praised as “top tier.”
Yasso Frozen Greek Yogurt Cups have been offered at select warehouse locations, according to the brand.
The product was introduced late last month, the company announced, just in time as summer temperatures begin to spike.
The 12-pack includes mini cups split between two flavors: Vanilla Caramel and Fudge Chip.
GREEK YOGURT HAS ‘AMAZING BENEFITS’ FOR THE BODY AFTER WORKOUTS, NEW STUDY SAYS
Marketed as a lighter alternative to traditional ice cream, each 3-ounce cup contains less than 100 calories and 4 grams of protein.
The Vanilla Caramel flavor has 80 calories per serving, while the Fudge Chip comes in at 90 calories.
The pack reportedly retails for $11.89, equivalent to roughly $1 per cup, according to Instagram page Costcobffs.
The new release has sparked significant attention across social media.
One Reddit user praised the decision, saying Yasso items are not overly sweet and lack the artificial taste often found in other low-calorie desserts.
“Yasso products have always been top tier,” the user said.
Another Reddit user added, “These are absolutely amazing and the right portion for that sweet treat.”

Social media page CostcoHotFinds, which said it has partnered with the brand, noted the item is available for a limited time.
“Availability depends on the region and retailer,” Yasso said. “We’d suggest checking with your local store manager about ordering it in.”
Shoppers eager to try the mini cups may also find the product at BJ’s Wholesale Club locations, the brand added.
It is typical for Costco to roll out limited-time products as part of a testing period before wider or recurring availability.
The Yasso brand has, however, shown staying power, as Costco has previously carried its frozen Greek yogurt bars, including Cookies ‘n Cream and Mint Chocolate Chip flavors.
The 15-count packs feature similar nutrition profiles, with each serving typically ranging between 90 and 100 calories and containing about 5 grams of protein.
FOX Business reached out to Yasso for more information.
