Set-style yogurt is poured into individual containers to set, while Swiss-style yogurt is stirred prior to packaging.

This type of yogurt may be marketed under the name Swiss-style, although it is unrelated to conventional Swiss yogurt. Some yogurts, often called "cream line", are made with whole milk which has not been homogenized so the cream rises to the top. In many countries, sweetened, flavored yogurt is common, typically sold in [[single-use|single-serving]] [[plastic cup]]s.<ref name=moore18/> Common flavors may include [[vanilla]], [[honey]], and [[toffee]], and various fruits.<ref name=moore18/><ref name=berry/> In the early 21st century, yogurt flavors inspired by desserts, such as chocolate or cheesecake, became common.<ref name=berry/> There is concern about the [[#Nutrition|health effects of sweetened yogurt]] due to its high sugar content,<ref name=moore18/> although research indicates that use of sugar in yogurt manufacturing has decreased since 2016 in response to [[World Health Organization|WHO]] and government initiatives to combat [[obesity]].<ref name=moore18/><ref>{{cite journal |last1=Moore |first1=J.
