The frozen yogurt chain 16 Handles is expanding into Arizona soon.

A shop is planned in Fulton Ranch Towne Center in Ocotillo, on the southwest corner of Ocotillo Road and Arizona Avenue, according to 16 Handles' company website, 16handles.com.

That center is across Ocotillo from Hamilton High School. It will be the first Arizona store for the frozen yogurt chain.

Started in 2008, 16 Handles is currently in New Jersey, Massachusetts, Texas, South Carolina and Florida.

The name is a play on the song and movie title "Sixteen Candles." The chain has 16 rotating "handles" or flavors.

Those flavors included, as of Dec. 23, Arriba coffee, birthday cake and black matcha.

There are dozens of gluten-free, fat-free, reduced-fat, vegan and artisan options.

Party packages and catering are available.
