Now Open: FREO Is Serving Premium Froyo and Express Gelato From a New Flagship Store in Darling Square
More space, more flavours and more fun make this recently launched location a must-visit for froyo lovers.
There's no need to choose between frozen yoghurt or gelato when FREO is within reach. Luckily, this premium purveyor has just launched a new flagship shop in Darling Square, making it even easier to get your hands on a refreshing treat. Now with three stores spread across Sydney, the latest spot makes your in-store visit better than ever, with even more options to craft your dream combination of Asian-inspired flavours, sauces and toppings.
Launched by a quartet of industry veterans, including two-hatted chef Federico Zanellato (LuMi Dining, Lode Pies & Pastries), FREO's Darling Square locale features indoor and outdoor seating for up to 30 people. Decked out in the brand's soft purple theme, you'll feel comfortable preparing a sweet treat to-go before catching up with friends and exploring the heart of the city.
"Darling Square is the perfect location for FREO – a place we've always dreamed of having the flagship store," says Zanellato. "It's a vibrant, interactive environment where you can create something truly unique and enjoy it with friends and family. We're excited to share this new chapter with our community in such an exciting and dynamic location."
With more than enough room to spread out, this larger space has also allowed FREO to expand its range of flavours and toppings. With 10 flavours pouring every day, some of the must-taste creations include Japanese strawberry, mango and passionfruit, and taro. Made fresh daily using 100% pot-set yoghurt, FREO's use of premium ingredients results in a super creamy, tangy base primed for sweet accoutrements.
Casting your gaze over the DIY topping bar, it's easy to get lost in the 45 add-ons. Ranging from decadent to healthy, sauces like Callebaut chocolate, melted Lotus Biscoff and Nutella on tap are some of your richer options. Also available is a selection of mochi, fresh fruit, seasonal items and even FREO's exclusive baked goods. Discovering the best combinations is all part of the fun.
Yet FREO offers more than just froyo. Guests can opt for silky smooth express gelato, featuring flavours like Sicilian pistachio with sea salt, Rindo matcha, Japanese black sesame with bamboo charcoal, and caffe latte and kuromitsu sugar syrup. For plant-based pals, choice treats like Belgian dark chocolate, watermelon and yuzu, and premium açaí ensure loading up an unforgettable cup is made simple.
FREO is open Sunday–Thursday from 11am–10.30pm and Friday–Saturday from 11am–11pm at 5 Little Hay Street, Haymarket. Head to their Instagram for more information.
