Winners of IFYA's 1st Froyo Swirling Skills Contest Announced

LOS ANGELES - July 15, 2015 - PRLog -- The International Frozen Yogurt Association's first Instagram contest, the search for the best froyo swirlers in the world is over. And the winners of the Froyo Swirling Skills contest are…

First Prize (100 ounces of Yogurtland froyo): @db_pottery, https://instagram.com/p/4fQe99CxSz/

@db_pottery is a veteran froyo swirler who describes his technique as “a collaboration of nearly a decade of #FroYo swirling…I ensured the cup moved around to allow the FroYo to stack in a small circle, this builds the swirling effect…”

Second Prize (50 ounces of Yogurtland froyo): @lequarterone, https://instagram.com/p/43G7z0j_Vi/

@lequarterone took a playful, humorous approach; he powered his froyo swirling with a new technique, the unicycle.

Susan Linton, President of the IFYA said, "This was such a fun contest and we loved watching videos from froyo fans. We admired the slow, methodical swirling and the confidence of the one thumb on the lever of @db_pottery. @lequarterone impressed us with creativity and humor, not to mention his accurate aim. We’ve seen people power smoothie makers with a bicycle but not a froyo machine."

Congratulations to IFYA's official froyo swirling stars! They won froyo by demonstrating their enviable froyo swirling skills in their Instagram videos. Winners were selected based on creativity, clarity of swirling technique explanation and the appearance of their swirl.
