Icelandic secret...power in every spoonful
There is a "yoghurt" that is naturally fat free, smooth and thick, and full of flavour; a "yoghurt" that contains less sugar, delivers great taste, more protein and calcium. The secret - Icelandic non-fat dairy tradition that taste like yoghurt, but it is not called a yoghurt in Iceland.
There are two remarkable Icelandic style yoghurts, and both deliver top nutritional values and health benefits.
Skyr.is is a dairy product unique to Iceland. It has a smooth, creamy texture, it's rich in flavours and nutrition. It comes in four flavours - blueberry, strawberry, vanilla and plain. My favourite is vanilla - I mix it with fresh fruit or add it to my morning shake. Skyr.is is made from fresh skim milk, and it delivers 16 grams of protein, 0 grams of fat, it is low in sodium and full of rich flavour. Eating Skyr.is brings indulgence and satisfaction. It is a perfect step to begin your healthy lifestyle. A smart addition to Skyr.is is a plastic spoon, so it is easy to eat and enjoy it on the go.
I love Siggi's! Siggi's is the best Icelandic style yoghurt on the market! Its texture is rich and smmoth. It has very refreshing flavours, and it is a delicious snack low in carbs, low in sugars and rich in protein. I love Siggi's especially to add on pancakes. Siggi's contains less sugar than Skyr.is. It has only 13 grams of carbs, and 10 grams of that is from a natural sweetener - agave juice. Siggi's is an excellent source of protein and nutrients. It comes in outstanding flavours - blueberry, orange and ginger, pomegranate and passionfruit, or plain. It is a great choice for diabetics or anyone trying to manage their sugar intake. Thanks to the founder Siggi, we can eat enjoy flavour without artificial sweatners or overloaded with sugars!
