Currently, flavored yogurt and fruit yogurt are the main products. From the perspective of fat content, there are full-fat yogurt, low-fat yogurt, and non-fat yogurt.

Solidified yogurt: After inserting the bacteria, it is put into retail containers first, and then kept warm and fermented. The finished product is solidified in the container.

Stirred yogurt: The starter produced in Baojiang is inoculated in the fermenter with the flying petals of the growing stalks. After solidification, it is stirred and put into a cup or other container.
