WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WLFI)- A group of Purdue students is introducing a new treat that everyone can savor on campus. The project has been in the works since the founders' freshman year of college. They're seniors now, and have made quite a lot of progress. Soon enough, everyone on campus will be able to get a taste of what they've been working on.

There's plenty of dining options on Purdue University's campus.

"I usually go to Subway, sometimes Panda Express, I would do pizza but I'm lactose intolerant. Sad day," said Ezra Anderson.

But for those with dietary restrictions, like Ezra Anderson, wherever they go- their options are limited.

"When I'm at Walmart I always have to go to that section, the lactose free, there's not a lot," Anderson said. "When you go out with your friends, guess what? You're alone when they get ice cream."

That's why one group of students is bringing a new dessert option to campus that everyone can enjoy.

"A 100 percent all natural, dairy-free, frozen yogurt product," Marek Davis said. "And they can even create it to the exact customized variety that they would desire."

They call it FroYo Xpress. It's a self-serve kiosk that gives you frozen yogurt, plus toppings, minus the dairy.

Co-founder Marek Davis said it's about being inclusive.

"We've done some research that shows a vast majority of the international students have some sort of dairy-related intolerance," Davis said. "And the current products that we provide in our convenience stores don't cater to them."

Co-founder Henry Berkemeier says they're giving students the opportunity to try a new product.

"It's kind of been the latest health trend," Berkemeier said. "You know if you can eliminate dairy, there are lots of benefits to having a dairy-free option."

Another element that makes this project unique is the weigh-and-pay system at traditional frozen yogurt shops doesn't apply here.

"Customers basically walk up to the machine, choose a cup either small or large, pour as much frozen yogurt and toppings as they'd like and then pay for it," Berkemeier said.

The prices are a flat rate; four dollars for a small cup and six dollars for a large.

So whether you live a lactose-free life, or are just trying to be more health-conscious, this dessert is a pretty sweet alternative.

"We're, you know, hopeful," Berkemeier said. "We've done our research and we're excited to bring this to campus."

The Fro-Yo Xpress machine will be installed later this fall at the third street market on campus. The machine will be operable during the market's hours, which can be found here.
