Been making it for years since Jill’s Johnson first brought it to QVC. Only had one failure when I made a banana custard flavour one which was very gelatinous. these days only buy the Greek style
 
My sentiment exactly! I could never get it to set and so it was money wasted. Aldi do lovely thick yogurt and hubby uses the pots in the garden. However, the Easiyo containers are great for storing dog treats so all is not lost…
We get the Lidl yoghurt. I use it in the warmer weather to make smoothies with some milk and lots of frozen fruit.
 
Can't beat Aldi 10% fat proper Greek yogurt! I love it, only £1.89 for 500g too.
I've tried that too is that the one that comes almost in a bucket? If so it's good and at least in comes in a sturdy container. The Easiyo sachets are usually about £3.75 each and they make a kilo so in that respect they're economical (if of course you can find somewhere doing free p&p or find a shop that sells them). I like that you can buy a load at a time and they won't start going off until you make them up as they've got long dates on them. I'm definitely a convert!

Lakeland and the range sell the sachets
 
Took a trip out to the Range today to stock up on Easiyo sachets to find that they don't sell them and haven't done for about 2 years. I told them that they had a comprehensive selection still showing on their website and the assistant told me that I could only buy them online. I quickly checked on my phone and showed her that all the sachets said available in store only, so she said oh it must be selected stores then so that was that. I ended up looking at QVC again and the p&p was only £1.95 so I ordered a 10 pack of sachets that feature various berrys and cherry. Then I found another retailer and bought a selection pack of flavour basics and three more fancy ones and postage was free cos I'd spent enough to qualify. So I've spend a bit of a fortune on yoghurt but it should keep me going for ages. I'm still not through my original pack. I don't know why I bother with high street stores any more they never seem to have what I want!

I just spent over £50 on various curries to get free PP, I hope I live long enough to eat them all otherwise I will be very annoyed ;)

Apologies, I didn’t realise that they only sell in selected stores. I bought a couple of Greek ones yesterday. They have become expensive in the range, so I shall source elsewhere

Did you buy yours in the Range? I wish they hadn't got rid of Lakeland in my hometown. Even though I'm a bit cheesed off about the range it's about10 miles away so we have to drive out there or take a train so it is a bit of a pain in the backside. It's good that there's an Iceland within the store as they've got rid of my two local branches. Anyway it's online for me now but I'm well stocked up now that's for sure!

Yes - I did get them in the range. I’m going to make a custard one later. I also bought the Greek blueberry and the Greek passion fruit and mango. I know that there is an online shop where you can pick and mix yoghurt mixes, but I can’t remember the website address

I wish it had said "selected stores" on the website as it would've saved us a trip out of town. I'd have phoned them and found out whether they stocked them. Never mind I know now. The ones I bought from Q and the other website I ended up paying the same price per sachet as the Range was selling them for and that includes postage. It's not as though I've run out so I don't mind having to wait for delivery - happy days!
 
For the last few days I've been flavouring my HOME-MADE yogurt (not easiyo) with strawberry protein powder.

The dose on the packet said to use 50g, but I then realised that cost £1 !!!!!

I've been gradually cutting down, to 25, 12, and now 10g, so about 20P extra for the flavour, and still strong enough.

But I actually prefer plain yogurt, but I have the rest of the 500g £10 packet to use up first
 
This time I made up the chocolate orange dessert style and it's been the most disappointing one yet. Like the first chocolate one I did, it was a devil to get mixed properly, I dunno but there seems to be more powder in the sachet, obviously there isn't but I think it's heavier so will sit on top of the water and none of it sinks down. Anyway I know it says dessert style but I find it a bit heavy. The choc orange one in particular isn't nice enough to be a dessert as you can barely taste any orange in it and the chocolate's too weak. The straightforward chocolate one was slightly nicer as it tasted more chocolatey, nethertheless I'd rather have something more light and zingy for breakfast. I'll plough my way through this lot, in fact I may actually scrape it all out and freeze it and make myself a different flavour. I have 3 choc ones left which I doubt whether I'll use.
