# Expert advice:

01 -
  • It tastes like a dessert but actually delivers protein and probiotics, so you can eat it without guilt.
  • Freezer bark is deceptively simple, which means you can make it on a whim and still impress people.
  • There's room to play—swap berries, change toppings, adjust sweetness—so it never gets boring.
02 -
  • If your chocolate is grainy or 'seized' (looks dull and clumpy), add a tiny drizzle of coconut oil and stir gently until it comes back to life—water is the enemy of melted chocolate, but fat is its friend.
  • Don't skip the parchment paper; yogurt bark has a stubborn streak and will stick to anything without it.
  • The bark will be softer if you use low-fat yogurt and harder if you use full-fat, so your texture preference should guide your choice.
03 -
  • Use a bench scraper or thin spatula to get under the bark edge and lift it off the parchment once it's frozen—it comes away cleanly with almost no effort.
  • If you're making this for a crowd, double the recipe on two sheets and freeze them side by side; it's barely more work and looks more generous.
