Made this for a mid-morning snack today -- very nice! I used lowfat plain yogurt, which I sweetened with a spoonful of Lyle's golden syrup and a bit of vanilla paste, and I used kiwi, mango and blackberries for the fruit. Thanks for posting! Made for ZWT5 Australia/NZ

Made this for a quick afternoon snack. So refreshing. I used non-fat plain yogurt with kiwis, strawberries, raspberries and blueberries. I had toasted coconut on mine but left it off for my son. Made for ZWT 5. Thanks!
