Orange Yogurt Cloud Dessert (aka Orange Fluff)

A light, creamy, citrus-kissed dessert that tastes like a creamsicle cloud. Made with Greek yogurt (even if you swear you hate it), this fluff is airy, refreshing, and dangerously spoonable.

 Prep Time

5 minutes

 Chill Time (optional)

20–30 minutes

Servings

4–6 servings

 Ingredients

  • 1 cup full-fat plain Greek yogurt
    (Full-fat gives the best texture and flavor)

  • 1 small box (3 oz) sugar-free orange gelatin mix
    (Regular works too—just sweeter)

Optional add-ins

  • ½ cup whipped topping or whipped cream (for extra fluff)

  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

  • Orange zest (for stronger citrus flavor)

 Instructions

  1. Add Greek yogurt to a medium mixing bowl.

  2. Sprinkle the dry orange gelatin powder directly over the yogurt.

  3. Whisk vigorously for 1–2 minutes until fully smooth and fluffy.

  4. Fold in any optional add-ins.

  5. Chill for 20–30 minutes if you want a firmer, mousse-like texture—or eat immediately for a softer cloud.

 Description Notes

  • The gelatin reacts with the yogurt to create a light, whipped texture—no heat or water needed.

  • The flavor mimics orange creamsicle without tasting “yogurty.”

  • Texture thickens slightly as it chills.

 Tips for Best Results

  • Use full-fat yogurt for maximum creaminess.

  • Whisk well—this activates the fluffiness.

  • If your yogurt is very thick, add 1–2 tablespoons milk to loosen it.

  • Chill longer (1 hour) for a more mousse-like dessert.

 Variations

  • Lemon Cloud: Lemon gelatin + vanilla yogurt

  • Strawberry Cream: Strawberry gelatin + plain yogurt

  • Piña Colada: Pineapple gelatin + coconut yogurt

  • Protein Boost: Mix in a scoop of vanilla protein powder
