For your Easter food shop, start by choosing the number of pots to suit the portions you’ll need. A pack of 6 × 125 g is ideal for sharing with a small group, while a larger assortment means you’ll need enough fridge space and time to enjoy the pots before their use-by date. Then compare the ingredients and nutritional information for each variety. For example, a 0% fat recipe may still contain milk and sweeteners.
If you’re looking for a fresh dessert to share without buying a large assortment, a pack of 6 × 125 g gives you six individual portions. Product listings from Panier de Yoplait, Carrefour Extra and Nos Régions ont du Talent feature options in this pack size.
An assortment of 16 pots could suit several people or provide snacks over a few days, as long as you have enough room in the fridge and can enjoy them before their use-by date.
If ingredients, sugars, fat or allergens matter more to you than the flavour on the label, compare each variety individually. The recipes from Panier de Yoplait, Carrefour Extra and Danone are different.
When buying fruit yoghurts for Easter, start by counting the portions, then check the recipe and the information on the pack you choose.

In the Carrefour Extra assortment, the ingredients and fruit proportions vary by flavour. So a picture of fruit won’t tell you exactly what’s in each pot.
Read the ingredients list for the variety you’re interested in, especially if you’re looking for fruit pieces or comparing sugars.
Sixteen pots take up more room than six, and you’ll need to enjoy them before the use-by date shown on the pack.
