Yoasis, the popular frozen yogurt shop that opened on downtown Asbury Avenue three years ago, celebrated the opening of a second location on the Ocean City Boardwalk on Friday.
Ocean City Regional Chamber of Commerce leaders, city officials and family members joined co-owners Tina Spadafora-Gushka and Matt Gushka in a ceremonial ribbon-cutting at Yoasis Beach Bowls.
The new shop at 1242 Boardwalk opened for weekends earlier this spring.
The new boardwalk Yoasis Beach Bowls will have a different flavor than the downtown self-serve frozen yogurt location.
Beach Bowls will serve six flavors of frozen yogurt (not self-serve), but also will feature “bowls” such as Acai Bowls — pure acai, banana and almond milk, topped with granola and banana. A variety of smoothies also will be available, along with vegan and gluten-free baked goods.
One signature menu item will be cold-pressed coffee, a drink brewed without heat for a smoother taste and low acidity, according to Spadafora-Gushka. It is served as iced coffee.
“Pinkberry meets Jamba Juice” is how she described her new venture, referring to two growing national franchises.
