How long do they last in the fridge or freezer?

In the fridge , they’ll last up to 3 days , perfect for a soft and creamy bite. In the freezer , they stay good for 3 months . Just thaw for a few minutes before enjoying.

Can I substitute pomegranate with other fruits?

Definitely. While pomegranate gives a juicy crunch and antioxidant punch, feel free to use blueberries, raspberries, chopped strawberries, or even mango. Each fruit will slightly change the taste and texture but still be delicious.

What’s the best chocolate for coating?

Dark chocolate (70% or higher) is recommended for both flavor and nutritional benefits. However, milk or semi-sweet chocolate also works well if you prefer a lighter, sweeter taste.

Can I add protein powder or collagen to the mix?

Yes! A scoop of vanilla protein powder blends smoothly with the yogurt. It’s a great option if you're aiming for a post-workout snack or want a higher-protein dessert. Just mix it in before folding in the pomegranate seeds.

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine yogurt, vanilla, and cashew butter until smooth.
Fold in the pomegranate seeds gently without crushing them.
Using a spoon or scoop, form 5–6 clusters on a parchment-lined tray.
Freeze the clusters for 1–3 hours until fully solid.
Melt chocolate and coconut oil together in short microwave intervals, stirring until smooth.
Dip each frozen cluster in melted chocolate and place back on the tray.
Sprinkle with flaky salt if desired.
Freeze again for 10–15 minutes until chocolate sets.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

Notes

Use thick yogurt to maintain cluster shape after freezing.
Greek yogurt adds more protein.
Do not skip the coconut oil; it helps prevent the chocolate from seizing.
Customize with other fruits like blueberries or mango.
Add toppings like chopped nuts, chia seeds, or shredded coconut.
