Yo-Chi x Whittaker’s Collaboration Launches this Winter

A chocolate affair like never before is coming to Yo-Chi thanks to an exclusive collaboration with iconic New Zealand heritage chocolate brand Whittaker’s.

For four indulgent weeks only, Yo-Chi will feature two of Whittaker’s most loved chocolate blocks on its toppings bar. To celebrate this iconic partnership, Whittaker’s re-made the famous Yo-Chi machine out of Whittaker’s chocolate, taking 15 hours of crafting. For the first two weeks, fans can enjoy the rich, creamy taste of Whittaker’s Coconut Block, followed by the luscious Creamy Caramel Block for the final two weeks of the collaboration. It’s the ultimate winter treat, where guests can combine any of Yo-Chi’s frozen yogurt base with the uncompromising quality of Whittaker’s chocolate.

This partnership brings together two beloved brands across Australia and New Zealand, both known for celebrating community, creativity and craftsmanship. This marks the first time Yo-Chi fans will be able to experience these two decadent Whittaker’s varieties as frozen yogurt toppings, bringing together the best of both worlds in one deliciously self-serve moment.

“To be honest, Whittaker’s Coconut Block is my favourite food on planet earth,” said Oliver Allis, Brand Director and Co-Owner of Yo-Chi. “This collaboration is my selfish desire to have the best chocolate I’ve ever tasted on Yo-Chi’s toppings bar. It may backfire though by the ridiculous amount of Whittaker’s on Yo-Chi I’m going to be devouring over the next month….. It’s not just the drool-worthy taste, Whittaker’s commitment to quality and their family values made this an easy partnership to fathom. Plus, who doesn’t love a New Zealander!!”

Whittaker’s has been making New Zealand’s finest chocolate for nearly 130 years, remaining proudly family-owned through generations. That deep sense of heritage and pride in quality aligns perfectly with Yo-Chi’s own values, bringing people together through fun, flavour and shared experiences.

“We’re delighted to be partnering with Yo-Chi and bringing Chocolate Lovers a new way to enjoy Whittaker’s,” said Holly Whittaker, Co-COO at Whittaker’s. “Our brands both value craft and community, and together it will create a truly memorable, and delicious experience for Chocolate Lovers this winter.”

Yo-Chi has become Australia’s fastest-growing and most popular frozen yogurt brand where customers are encouraged to handcraft their own bowls and cones of deliciousness from Yo-Chi’s extensive and famous toppings bar. Whittaker’s is a premium New Zealand chocolate brand that is beloved for its classic creamy chocolate, innovative artisan collaborations, and ethical sourcing of cocoa.

The Yo-Chi x Whittaker’s collaboration will be available in all Yo-Chi venues nationwide from 21 July 2025 for a limited-time only. Don’t miss your chance to experience the ultimate chocolate affair this winter.

In related news, Yo-Chi has announced the return of the much-loved Yo-Chi x KeepCup Go Bowl.
