Pinkberry Canada Launch at Park Royal

Pinkberry Canada Launch at Park Royal

I apologize to those of you who have a weakness for frozen yogurt, because Pinkberry has officially opened their very first Canada location! The famous froyo chain launched their first Canadian store at The Village at Park Royal in West Vancouver. And a Pinkberry party means free frozen yogurt, some champage, and a lot of Cory Monteith. His band, Bonnie Dune, played a great set for a crowd of screaming girls (not that I was one of them or anything :P)

Mango Frozen Yogurt from Pinkberry

For my very first Pinkberry experience, I opted for a mango frozen yogurt with fresh strawberries, kiwi, and shaved milk chocolate. It’s understandable that Pinkberry is so popular. It was the perfect dessert, very light and full of flavour. Dessert for dinner is okay, right?

My date for the evening was the biggest Pinkberry fan I know, Danielle of smellydanielly.com. I drove Melissa of miss-melissa.com as well, but we got lost and ended up on a 45 minute detour. That’s a whole other story though, let’s not focus on my poor navigation skills! Also in attendance was Jen of prairiegirlinthecity.com, Lisa of sololisa.com, Alexandra of tovogueorbust.com, Jen of herwaisechoice.com, and Chloe of thisgirlscity.com. It’s always so great to see these ladies, if you don’t know their blogs already go check them out asap!

A big thanks to Lisa Kwong for the invite to such a wonderful event. I can’t wait to head back to Pinkberry to try their other flavours.

Be sure to “Like” their Facebook Page and follow them on Twitter for Pinkberry updates. Happy Friday friends xo

    Such a fun event! You got some great photos, Alicia.

    It's always great to see you, but so rare to see you twice in one week! I feel spoiled. <3

    Nice! I have never had frozen yoghurt, but I will definitely try it. "Froyo" places already started popping up while I was still living in the Netherlands, but I never got to try it so I should definitely make that up and check it out here in Vancouver 🙂

    I've been looking through everyone's posts about this event and I must say I'm totally envious… Not only does the frozen yogurt look delicious, but it would have been so fun to be at this event just to see all of you beautiful ladies styled up in person. I love that you're rocking that giant cross. You're probably the only person I know who could pull it off 🙂
    xox,

    This looks like it was SO much fun. But, I'm confused… how did you not get Cory's number for me?!! Alicia!! I hope there was some mild stalking at the very least!

    I'm heading over today to try it for the first time, very excited… even if there will be no one to stalk 😉
