Yoga Day, celebrated every year on June 21, is more than just an opportunity to stretch, breathe, and meditate. It’s a call to align with nature, nourish your body, and embrace holistic wellbeing.

And here are some flavor options for you to try out:
Here, fresh mango pulp is blended with coconut milk for a creamy tropical base, which is then frozen and dipped in melted Dairy Milk Silk. Mango is a natural energy booster, ideal after sun salutations. Also, mango’s rich sweetness pairs beautifully with the nutty undertones of coconut. The mellow milk chocolate wrapping adds an irresistible finish.
For this dessert, juicy watermelon is blended with a squeeze of lime, then frozen into icy pops and partially dipped in Cadbury Silk. Watermelon hydrates and cools the system, making it great for balancing internal energy on a warm day. This duo is light and citrusy, with chocolate providing a slightly bitter counterpoint that rounds out the flavour.
Fresh strawberries are pureed and folded into Greek yogurt with a hint of honey, then dipped in Silk Fruit & Nut chocolate for added texture. Yogurt adds protein for muscle recovery after an intense yoga session. Also, the tangy yogurt base mimics cheesecake, while the nutty chocolate crust adds crunch and complexity.
Kiwi slices and mint leaves are suspended in a light apple juice base, frozen, and then dipped in Silk chocolate. Mint stimulates digestion and refreshes the senses post practice. Tart kiwi and cool mint keep the palate fresh, while chocolate adds creamy balance.
Pineapple chunks blended with fresh orange juice and frozen are then half-dipped in Silk. Citrus fruits awaken the senses and help detoxify the system. Pineapple and orange make a zesty, invigorating combination. The chocolate wrap makes it taste like a tropical sundae on a stick.
A mashed banana and blueberry puree is swirled together and frozen, then dipped in Silk for that unique melt in your mouth sensation. Bananas offer post workout potassium, helping prevent muscle cramps. The fruit base is creamy and subtly sweet, while the bubbly texture of the chocolate adds a playful twist.
The pomegranate juice is mixed with a hint of rosewater for a floral, romantic touch, which is then frozen and dipped in classic Cadbury Silk. Pomegranate is rich in antioxidants, supporting heart health and post practice glow. The pomegranate provides a tart punch, mellowed by the fragrant rose and silk smooth chocolate coating.
