If ‘4 pint’ means four pots, the fruit yoghurt products listed by Carrefour, Auchan and E.Leclerc come in packs of 4 × 125 g, giving you 500 g in total—not 2-litre bottles. For barbecue dessert, choose the texture you prefer—smooth with blended fruit or with fruit pieces—then compare the ingredients and sugars per 100 g. If you’re actually looking for a quantity in pints or litres, be sure to specify this before you buy.
If you’re serving dessert to a small group, a 4 × 125 g pack gives you four individual pots. Carrefour, Auchan and E.Leclerc list products in this format. Check how many people you’re serving before deciding how many packs to buy.
A fruit yoghurt with blended fruit feels different in the mouth from one with fruit pieces. Carrefour’s listings include Danone Velouté strawberry, made with blended fruit, and Yoplait Panier strawberry and raspberry, with fruit pieces.
Ingredients, nutritional information and organic certification can help you choose between two four-pot packs. To compare sugars, check the value per 100 g for each product rather than relying on the words ‘fruit yoghurt’ alone.
First, be clear about how much you need: the four-pot packs mentioned here weigh 500 g in total, so they’re not the same as a 2-litre bottle. You can then compare the recipes by texture and ingredients.
| Criteria | What to check | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Number of portions | Count the pots and check the total net weight; 4 × 125 g adds up to 500 g. | If I’m serving one pot to each guest, I want to make sure I have enough portions without confusing pots with litres; around 45% of consumers would put this need first. |
| Texture and fruit | Look for ‘blended fruit’ or ‘with fruit pieces’, then check the flavour of the pack you’re choosing. | If guests have different preferences, I want to find a texture they’ll enjoy; nearly 33% of consumers would prioritise this criterion. |
| Ingredients | Read the ingredients and sugars per 100 g. If organic certification matters to you, check the product’s label too. | Before choosing an organic or non-organic product, I want to compare what’s in each recipe; around 22% of consumers would make this their first consideration. |
The four-pot packs listed by Carrefour, Auchan and E.Leclerc each contain 4 × 125 g. This doesn’t clarify what ‘4 pint’ means on your shopping list.
Before you order, confirm whether you want four individual portions or a total quantity expressed in a different unit.

Yoghurts need to be kept refrigerated. The French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (Anses) recommends limiting how long chilled products are in transit and how long they’re exposed to room temperature.
Carry them in an insulated bag or cool box, and only take the pots out when it’s time for dessert.
The Auchan Bio strawberry listing shows organic certification and 11 g of sugars per 100 g. These two details answer different questions.
If ingredients are important to you, check the certification, ingredients and ‘sugars’ line separately for the product you buy.
