Frozen yogurt treats became popular as a healthier alternative to ice cream in the late 20th century. With the rise of Greek yogurt and clean eating trends, recipes like yogurt bites gained popularity for being high in protein, low in fat, and naturally sweetened. Blueberries, known for their antioxidant power, have long been used in desserts and snacks across North America and Europe.
