Yoghurt questions

Hello everyone

I have reusable yoghurt pouches for LO lunchbox for nursery (allergies and it’s hard to find individual pots of plain dairy & soya free yoghurt). It’s difficult to use the big pot before it goes off, so thought would freeze some pouches.
so two questions - what’s the best pen to use to label the pitches that can also wash off easy enough?!

also are there any plain dairy & soya free individual yoghurts? Or am I best to do what I am doing with reusable pouches?

also what are some other plain dairy free yoghurts to try?

most the dairy & soya free options I find are flavoured. Or are there ones with less sugar? We have have tried a coconut based (the coconut collab) one that LO doesn’t like as it was very coco nutty (even though the preferred milk is coconut based - ‘Koko’ - but that’s mild and tastes very similar to cows milk!).
LO loved regular full fat plain Greek yoghurt before developing the allergy. LO eats a lot of fruit so try to avoid additional sugar in most other things.

The Collective do dairy and soy-free sucky pouches, coconut based though. They do bigger pots that are oat, rice and coconut based.

Petit Filous have a fromage frais but it's almond based so probably not suitable for nursery! Oatly do oat-based big pots in plain greek-style and strawberry flavour.

I can't see any other individual pots/pouches that meet your requirements at Tesco.

So I was confused why I didn’t see the oatly one on the tesco site before when searching alternative yoghurt but it never came up because it’s under ‘oatgurt’ 😂

That's not exactly accessible! I found it under yoghurts > dairy free yoghurt alternatives

Alpro do individual yoghurt pots ( x 4 ) and petit filous do dairy free fromage frais.
