Found: Froyo in Orange

... and it was delicious.

To follow up on our recent visit to the Shelton location of Peachwave self-serve frozen yogurt, daughter Allegra and I tried out self-serve NuVita Frozen Yogurt & Cafe Tuesday.

The shop is in the Firelite Shopping Center on Old Tavern Road in Orange.
 

It was almost the same experience as we had at Peachwave.

NuVita offered a few less flavor choices but the frozen yogurt was just as good.

I chose to combine two: peach and cookies 'n cream. I opted for healthier toppings than Allegra chose: strawberries and blueberries.
She on the other hand chose Kit Kat pieces, peanut butter cup pieces and sprinkles to top her cake batter and cookies 'n cream frozen yogurt and a "few" strawberries.

As you can see I couldn't resist a bit of whipped cream and a "few" chocolate sprinkles on top!

There are also sweetened cereal pieces as well as fruit and candies from which to choose.

NuVita also is a cafe with a variety of coffee choices. Both places had friendly clerks who offered us froyo samples when we walked in the store.

If you like frozen yogurt I'd recommend going to either of these chains for a sweet frozen treat.

Catchin' a wave - Peachwave - in Shelton

SHELTON - I don't know why it took us so long to try Peachwave, but I'm sure glad we did. The self-serve, soft-serve frozen yogurt was simply scrumptious. I thought it tasted just like soft-serve ice cream.

Daughter Allegra and I visited Peachwave at 702 Bridgeport Ave. Wednesday and we weren't disappointed. She chose cupcake and peach-flavored fro yo (on left in photo) and covered it with Fruity Pebbles (she is still a kid, I guess!).

I had pistachio with chocolate accompaniment. Great combo! I chose M&Ms and birthday cake cubes for a topping. And a bit of whipped cream. Is that enough sugar for one day? I should say.

There are lots of toppings from which to choose, including more healthy choices like fruit and nuts. Next time!

One of the company slogans is "Promoting healthy dessert in a fun way."

After you make your fro yo sundae it gets weighed. That's when you find out how much you gave yourself and how much you have to fork over!
But it's truly worth every spoonful.
  
If you live in the Valley or surrounding towns, another close-by Peachwave is in Oxford, at 71 Oxford Road. And there is one in Monroe, at 535 Monroe Turnpike.

If you haven't tried it yet, and you love ice cream like I do, I recommend stopping by and catchin' a wave.
