# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Effortless elegance: Only 10 minutes of prep and the freezer does all the work.
  • Wholesome ingredients: Protein-rich Greek yogurt, fresh strawberries, and heart-healthy pistachios make every bite feel as good as it tastes.
  • Naturally gluten-free and vegetarian—a crowd-pleasing treat for nearly every guest.
  • Completely customizable: Swap fruits, add a chocolate drizzle, or go vegan with plant-based yogurt and maple syrup.
  • Perfect for sharing: Break it into rustic pieces and present it as a homemade Valentine's gift that rivals any box of chocolates.
02 -
  • Dry your strawberries well before placing them on the yogurt to prevent ice crystals from forming around the fruit.
  • Full-fat Greek yogurt produces a creamier, richer bark—but low-fat works perfectly well if you prefer a lighter result.
  • For a cleaner break, use a sharp knife rather than snapping the bark by hand, especially if you want more uniform pieces.
  • Store in a single layer in an airtight container in the freezer; if stacking, place parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking.
  • Work quickly when adding toppings—the yogurt can begin to firm up on a cold baking sheet if your kitchen is cool.
  • Check chocolate labels for potential soy or additional allergens before adding the optional drizzle.
