Any Yogurt experts out there?

I read in another forum about someone who was trying to make fruit flavoured yougurt but was having problems...my query is, am i being VERY thick(no yogurt jokes here pls!)but can't you only make natural yogurt then flavour it or am i missing something?
She was buying a pot of flavoured bio yogurt as her starter but was having problems...

    I make my own yoghurt all the time, usually from a natural live yoghurt starter and occasionally from an Easiyo (the Greek yoghurts are lovely). I've always added fruit afterwards. I don't think it would work with a fruit yoghurt as a starter.

    Any yoghurt should work as long as there is an active live culture. I would personally always use natural as this gives a better result, and then flavour to taste as you say.

  • I think it's them. Why would someone want a yoghurt culture and restrict themselves to a flavour? There's a lot more things you can do with it plain. Like use it in cooking for instance. No-one wants a raspberry-flavoured, hot main-course, do they?

    Thank You, I use Easiyo but thought i was missing a trick(and going slightly more bananas), I honestly didn't think it was possible to use this but,hey every day is a school day they say.:)
    Just the thought of hot raspberry (or other)yogurt main course sauce makes my eyes water!
