07 - Drop spoonfuls of matcha paste, pistachio cream, raspberry puree, and blueberry puree onto the yogurt then swirl gently using a skewer or knife for a marbled effect.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It feels like eating fancy gelato but takes fifteen minutes of active effort
  • The swirls turn out different every single time which makes each batch feel like a tiny art project
02 -
  • Freeze the bark uncovered or condensation will form and ruin that beautiful clean break you want when you snap pieces off
  • Work quickly once you start swirling because the yogurt starts softening immediately and your distinct patterns will blur into a muddy mess
03 -
  • Work with cold ingredients and keep the baking sheet in the freezer for ten minutes before starting if your kitchen is warm
  • Rotate the pan halfway through swirling to keep the layers even
