Frozen yogurt and toppings, toppings, toppings to celebrate!

Maplewood Village's latest foodie sensation is packing in the crowds and we're sure there'll be even more reasons to stop in for a frozen yogurt and visit the toppings bar today as celebrates its grand opening with an at 11 a.m.

The store had a "soft" opening on August 11 and has been drawing — and pleasing — crowds ever since.

“We wanted a soft opening so that we could get used to the registers and work out any kinks,” , one half of the two couples who own the venture, told Patch's Lauren Bright Pacheco on August 12. “So far the response has been great.” His wife Robin was also on hand to make sure the soft opening was running smoothly.
