The self-serve, choose your own toppings chain prides itself on its unique spoons, which the company's website describes as sporting a "long aerodynamic handle for faster froyo delivery," with a shape that was "engineered for shoveling froyo into your mouth."

Orange Leaf's menu includes "creamy & delicious," "fruity and fantastic," "no sugar added," and "dairy free" options.
