Section 21a-58-23 - Frozen yogurt: identity; label statement(a)Description. Frozen yogurt is the food which is prepared by freezing, while stirring, a pasteurized mix consisting of the ingredients permitted for ice cream in Section 21a-58-15. Such ingredients are cultured after pasteurization by one or more strains of Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus, provided, however, fruit, nuts, or other flavoring materials may be added before or after the mix is pasteurized and cultured.

Frozen yogurt, exclusive of any flavoring, contains not less than 3.25 per cent milkfat, not less than 8.25 per cent milk solids not fat and has a titratable acidity of not less than 0.5 per cent expressed as lactic acid. This characteristic acidity is developed as a result of the bacterial activity and no heat or bacteriostatic treatment, other than refrigeration, which results in destruction or partial destruction of the organisms, shall be applied to the product after such culturing. The finished yogurt shall weigh not less than five pounds per gallon.(b) The name of the food is "frozen yogurt."(c) In addition to all other required information, the label shall contain a complete list of ingredients, in accordance with the provisions of 21 CFR 101.4, and comply with the provisions of subdivisions (h) & (i) of 21 CFR 101.22.
