bailey’s frozen yogurt

Over the weekend we were up in North County land and after Jake’s chiropractor appointment and some lunch (and a walk!), we stopped for a little frozen yogurt treat. I felt I needed a little extra treat since I had to work the rest of the day (boo weekend working). It felt like summer again this weekend with temperatures in the 80’s! Nothing like San Diego weather to trick you into wondering what time of the year it is.

Bailey’s Frozen Yogurt was a new spot that recently opened in Escondido. It’s off the same exit as North County Fair but on the other side of the I-15 freeway. The original location for Bailey’s Frozen Yogurt is in Bonsall, CA a bit further up the 15. 

Ice cream is also available if you’re not feeling the frozen yogurt thing. 

These were the flavors available that day. The Cali Tart machine was having some issues but the nice lady working fixed it enough so that Jake could get that for one of his frozen yogurt flavors. 

Samplin’ time.

The tiny sample cups are available right next to the machines and you’re welcome to try as many samples as you’d like. I like that. They’re not stingy with the sample cups nor do you have to ask someone for the tiny cups. The frozen yogurt came out super thick and really creamy looking. This sample is the sea salt caramel which turned out to by my very favorite.

I tried all the flavors except pineapple and strawberry. I wasn’t in a fruity mood that day! The NSA Vanilla was the other winner for me – it had a really strong vanilla taste that I enjoyed. I thought the Chocolate Triple might have been a winner for me but it tasted more tart than I liked and I ended up with a mixture of Sea Salt Caramel and NSA Vanilla in my cup.

I thought maybe NSA stood for Non-Standard Alluring vanilla but really it just means “No Sugar Added” vanilla. 

You can add plenty of sugar in other ways though – with toppings! They had gummi toppings, white and chocolate chips, coconut, candy, and lots of nuts. 

A little bit of chopped Twix and Reeses Pieces went into my cup.

Fruity toppings and lots of sauces were available plus a bucket of hot caramel sauce (which is over on the left where you can’t see it). 

Fruity closeup! There were also some brownie bites and cookie dough in here. 

Here’s Jake’s cup. He grabbed one of the smaller cups next to the ice cream and filled it with the Cali Tart yogurt. He put Heath and Butterfinger on to top of his creation which he shared with T.  

I used a bigger cup but I never fill them up. I already know I can’t eat a full cup of frozen yogurt so I always scale it back. Mine has bits of twix, cookie dough, almonds and pecans, these weird caramel candies that I didn’t like, and a drizzle of caramel sauce.

These two cups of yogurt cost us about $6.30. I wasn’t paying attention to exactly how much it cost.

I didn’t know it at first but they totally have COLOR CHANGING SPOONS! It reminded me of those Hypercolor shirts that were all the rage when I was growing up. Except of course the spoons change color with the cold frozen yogurt and not the heat like the hypercolor shirts did.

My mom put my hypercolor shirt in the dryer. It didn’t work anymore after that. Sad cakes.

Here’s the spoon in action! 

Maya even got a little sample of yogurt to try as well. It’s safe to say that humans and dogs alike really liked our stop for frozen yogurt.
