Tried 4 of their yoghurt tubs and is it worth $20+ each? I wouldn’t say so. These are the ones I tried so far:
- apple cinnamon parfait 8/10
If you really want to try something from oatsome or spend $20 on yoghurt, buy this. The cinnamon flavour really surprised me - it was like biting into a cinnamon roll but in yoghurt form! The apples were crunchy and I guess it’s a nice texture contrast but I thought it would be like a soft, stewed cinnamon apple. The crumbles add a nice addition to the cinnamon yoghurt. Overall, I like it and I might repurchase this.
- hojicha strawberry tiramisu 7.5/10 (not in pic)
I love hojicha and I like the hojicha flavour in this yoghurt. Somehow the sourness of the yoghurt can complement the roasted notes of hojicha. The strawberry jam/compote isn’t really nice though I feel like they could have replaced it with their whole strawberries 🍓. I like the chocolate on the wholemeal biscuit and the fact that eating this feels like drinking an unsweetened hojicha latte. (btw this has no crumbles)
- earl grey dark choco tiramisu 6/10
As an earl grey fan, this was disappointing. I couldn’t taste the earl grey in the crumble and while the earl grey yoghurt was nice, it was overpowered by the dark chocolate. It would have been better if the earl grey flavour was stronger and if they used better quality earl grey.
- black sesame banana bread yogurt tub 5/10
Not a black sesame fan but it was alright. As before, the dark chocolate was too strong so it was hard to taste the black sesame and banana when eaten together. I like the banana bread and the gold spray on top of the yoghurt though ✨
oatsome’s yoghurt is quite overpriced imo but they are really filling… for a short while. idk why but the crumble looks like pork floss

... Read moreIf you’re considering buying Oatsome yogurts, here’s some additional insight based on my tasting experience and what I found from others.
The apple cinnamon parfait was by far the most satisfying. The cinnamon flavor truly tastes like a cinnamon roll, which makes it a great pick if you enjoy sweet and spicy combinations. The crunch from the apples and crumble adds texture that balances the creamy yogurt well. For those who love classic dessert flavors, this tub is worth trying despite the premium price.
The hojicha strawberry tiramisu offers an interesting flavor blend, but it’s not perfect. The earthy notes of hojicha pair nicely with the yogurt’s tartness, giving it a tea-latte vibe. However, the strawberry element was underwhelming—some fresh strawberries might improve this. The chocolate biscuit adds a nice bite, making it good for those who appreciate more subtle flavors.
As an Earl Grey fan, I hoped the earl grey dark chocolate tiramisu would impress, but it didn’t. The earl grey flavor in the crumble was weak and overshadowed by the heavy dark chocolate, which detracted from what could have been a complex taste profile. Perhaps a stronger or higher quality Earl Grey infusion would make this a better choice.
The black sesame banana bread flavor is quite unique but not for everyone. The black sesame wasn’t as prominent as expected and dark chocolate again dominated the taste. The banana bread flavor and decorative gold spray are nice touches that make it visually appealing and intriguing for adventurous eaters.
Also, something unusual I noticed: the crumble topping on some varieties looked like pork floss, which was uncanny but didn’t affect taste. The portions are filling, though the satisfaction doesn’t last long. Given the high price point of over $20 per tub, you might want to try the apple cinnamon parfait first to see if it matches your taste before splurging on others.
I tried their bssm bread yogurt tub. I’m a bssm fans but it is not my cup of tea at all. I can’t taste the bssm at all.
