Description
Creamy instead of sweet, the yogurt cup is what to reach for when a run of fruity flavours needs a break. Roughly 16 g of soft, mellow jelly that stays firm in the arena and keeps well for 4-7 days, with no spills or drowning risk. Camponotus, Lasius and harvester ants like Messor all take it.
Rotate in something mellow — drop a yogurt cup in the cart.

Yogurt Ant Jelly — carbohydrate feeding cup for ants
Most jelly flavours chase sweetness. Yogurt heads the opposite way: mild and creamy, a change of pace for a colony that has been eating fruit all week. The cup holds a single ~16 g serving of soft, sugar-based jelly with added flavour, vitamins and humectants to keep it moist, and it replaces honey and sugar water without any of their downsides — no smears, no puddles, no drowned workers. It was originally produced as premium beetle jelly and is fully ant-safe. Made in Europe, shipped sealed from Poland with tracked EU, UK and worldwide delivery.

Why jelly beats honey and sugar water
Liquid sugar works but puts workers at risk. Honey glues them down; an open sugar-water dish drowns them. A jelly cup delivers the carbohydrate in a solid block the colony can crowd safely. It will not spill if the arena gets moved, and a quick look tells you when to change it.
Who it’s for
Yogurt suits keepers who like to rotate the menu past fruit and see what their colony makes of something milder. It works for nearly every kept species — Camponotus, Lasius, Formica, Pheidole, tropical ants — and harvester ants such as Messor take it for extra carbohydrate alongside their seed diet.
How to feed it
Peel the foil and set the cup in the outworld or on a feeding dish. Replace it every 3-5 days, sooner once the surface dries and hardens, and pull leftovers before mould and mites arrive. Put out several cups for a larger colony. Keep spares sealed at room temperature, and once opened, refrigerate and use within a month.
A balanced diet, not carbohydrate alone
Jelly powers adult workers and foraging but does not raise brood. Larvae need protein, so pair the cup with insect prey or a protein paste.

Serve it on one of our drinking bowls or plates for a clean lift-out. Add Blanched Whole Crickets or Cricket Jam for protein and keep a water dish nearby for a complete feeding station.
FAQ
How is yogurt different from the fruit flavours?
Milder and creamier instead of sweet-fruity, which makes it a good break in the rotation.
How often should I feed jelly?
A fresh cup every 3-5 days. It holds up about 4-7 days in the arena, so swap it once the surface dries or hardens.
How do I store it?
Sealed cups keep for months at room temperature. Once opened, fridge it and use within a month.
Is it really beetle jelly?
It started life as premium beetle jelly. The recipe is fully ant-safe and behaves exactly like a dedicated ant jelly.
Will harvester ants like Messor eat it?
Yes. Messor and other granivores take jelly for extra carbohydrate alongside their seeds, and almost every kept species accepts it too.
Do I still need to feed protein?
Yes. Jelly is carbohydrate only. Offer insects or a protein paste for healthy brood.
Do you ship outside the EU?
Yes. Out of Poland within 24 hours, tracked EU, UK and worldwide.
