June 11, 2012 // Franchising.com // Franklin, Tenn. - Tasti D-Lite, the great-tasting, lower-calorie frozen dessert chain with a fanatical following among health-conscious consumers as well as celebrities, will introduce a new flavor as part of their “Strawberry Summertime” promotion. Strawberry Tart ‘n Tasti will be available June 11 through July 22. Strawberry Summertime will also highlight Tasti D-Lite’s existing strawberry flavors including strawberry, strawberry banana, strawberry cheesecake, strawberry colada and strawberry shortcake.

“Strawberry is such a great flavor for summer and so many people are looking for a great strawberry frozen dessert to cool off during the warm months,” said Donna Smith, vice president of marketing. “Our new strawberry Tart ‘n Tasti is a unique flavor that fits perfectly with summer. We think customers will really enjoy the tart flavor of frozen yogurt combined with the sweet flavor of strawberries.”
