Hello!! It’s the BEST yogurt ever! I’ve made it several times and it’s so easy! Thanks so much for this great starter and for answering all of my questions!
Bernard Yaged –
Thanks for prompt reply. I just placed another order.
Michelle Atallah –
I make soy milk yogurt
I love it by itself especially in summer as it is cooling
I love it over steamed rice, or with some garlic over cooked chickpeas
I use it strained to make fat free mayo
I also use it to make tzakziki (yogurt cucumber Greek dip)
The options are endless
Mick Breen –
Hi Ivo
Everything with the yoghurt is fine thank you and, just as you said it works every time.
I’m trying to reduce my cholesterol levels and really need to come away from using full fat milk.
Thanks
Mick
Yunan Yang –
yes. Your starter is the best.
Alexandra Jolliffe –
I love the flavour….natural, that is. It is healthy!
Chris Lepore –
This is going on forever — I still have one package left as I often use existing yogurt as starter.

Alice Jamieson –
Hello Ivo,
There Are 2 reasons I like to make my own yogurt. Firstly we have several people in our household who require 24 hour yogurt and so we like to make our own.
Secondly, we like that your starter makes a yogurt that is nice and thick. As you say, most are too runny to be used as a firm yogurt – we ended up using them as drinking yogurt instead.
Thanking you,
Alice Jamieson.
Tina –
This is great, thank you so much! I did not know it is possible to make vegan yoghurt – I will read tonight – do you sell your powder here in Norway, or do I need to order from your website?

Yogurt is great! I make it it every week. So far I still have some of the starter in the freezer.
Julie Gaudette –
Its great that I could use the starter over again!
Shelagh Morrison –
Again….thank you.
Lynnette –
Hi Ivo,
I took advantage of your sale offered at that time and have a good quantity of both yogurt and kefir culture in my freezer. I really like the kefir and find I make it more often than I do the yogurt.
I has such a natural sweet thickness that I will never go back to “store bought” kefir. I am still experimenting with the yogurt. I am trying to adjust the length of time that I allow a batch of yogurt to sit in the warmer to get the perfect combination of thick and sweet.
Patricia Eltora –
I received my yogurt starter and made my first batch!
Gaia Mazzeschi –
Dear Ivo
I’ve just received the starters, really fast delivery. 🙂
Thank you very much and kind regards

Chris Oliveira –
Your yogurt is better tasting than any other I have made!
tiffany percy –
Its healthy and delicious!
Phil Holzschu –
Ivo,
The yogurt is excellent. Today the third batch is culturing. The method I use keeps the culture alive indefinitely so I’m not sure when I will reorder.
I will recommend your culture to anyone interested in making their own.
Great product. I wish you continued success especially as I will want to buy more when the one I have dies and I run out.
Regards,
Phil

Well I just love experimenting on the kitchen, and right now I’m discovering the world of dairy . So I googled “Bulgarian yogurt” and results show me your site.
Robert Marra –
Everything is fine the culture makes excellent yogurt.
I’ll order more next month.

Wanda –
I absolutely love love the yogurt and kefir. I’ll never use any other. Wrapping it in a blanket and walking away makes the kefir and yogurt so much better than my old ,never to be used
again ,yogurt maker.
Peter Reynolds –
I love Greek yogurt as well as your Bulgarian. I would like to try your starter as my success with Total as a base are not good!
Petra Artner –
Yogurt and kefir are good for my Ayurvedic constitution 🙂 and bacillus bulgaricus comes highly recommended by my Japanese and Bulgarian friends.
Mick Breen –
Yoghurt is linked directly to a number of health benefits – the main reason that we eat yoghurt.
Thanks for your valued advice Ivo.

Maria Pelova –
Hi Ivo,
I loved the started and the yogurt it produced. I’m just slow to use it as unfortunately antibiotics made me dairy intolerant, so I’m careful with how much exposure I have. When I looked up to buy this starter, I was hoping that I won’t react to my birth home type of yogurt and I surely did a lot less.
I will be ordering again when I get low on my current supply, though I suspect it’ll be a while.
Anyway, your online store is fantastic and I was very happy to have found it!
Thanks again for the great product and the service you offer!
Best regards,
Maria

Hello, Ivo!
I buy yogurt because I am… part Bulgarian! My maternal grandmother was from a small village named Receletz, my mother was born in Tcherven Briag. I grew up in France, on a
bulgarian regimen… My grandma would make her yogurt from scratch and warm it up by the oven. Long tine ago. I am 74… and still remember and love my dear yogurt . I went to
Bulgaria several times and still have family there.
I have tried several yogurt starters. Yours is still the best!! Now I am buying for a friend too!
Please keep up the good work! Best regards, blagodaria and dovishdanie!
Elyane Rocheford –
Ah, I forgot! How did I hear about you? I went through different sites on the Net. And who could sell better bulgarian products than a… seller from Bulgaria!
Thanks, Ivo.
Roisin Moyne –
We eat yoghurt for gut health!
Arthur Stahl –
I’ve been having great results making 1 gallon batches using your regular starter. Love the flavor, and thicken it up by straining.
Rosemary Mistretta –
I have been cultivating my yogurt on a heating pad and a blanket. It works great, on the lowest temperature.
Zara Adoki –
That’s super awesome Ivo! Thanks!
oluchi okaro –
hello,
We received our order and really love both greek and bulgarian starters. simply the best
cheers.
Nancy Illian –
I just experimented with the regular yogurt which I questioned you about a few weeks ago. You suggested to put it in the microwave or a closet in the dark and cover it to help it get creamier. Voila! I did not cover it, as the kitchen closet is very warm, but I kept it in the closet after making for 1.5 days and it is lovely and creamy! Thanks again for your
suggestions.

camille olson –
