It\u2019s World Chocolate Day. And we have a treat for you. You love training. You love protein. You love chocolate. But do they all work harmoniously together? They just might. As we introduce the latest addition to our range of premium protein snacks, the new MACRO MUNCH\u2122 <\/span>Protein Chocolate<\/b><\/a>, let\u2019s see how.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is protein chocolate?<\/b><\/h2>\n

In order to understand what exactly protein chocolate is, we\u2019ll take a deeper dive into which ingredients it contains. The main difference between protein milk chocolate and regular milk chocolate is, quite simply, the ingredients.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The main ingredients of regular milk chocolate include milk, sugar, cocoa butter, cocoa mass and vegetable fats. Instead of milk, our protein chocolate contains whey protein concentrate and milk powder. And instead of sugar, our protein chocolate contains a sweetener called maltitol.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Reasons to try protein chocolate<\/b><\/h2>\n

If you want one main reason to try our MACRO MUNCH\u2122 Protein Chocolate, the clue is in the name. Our chocolate contains a source of protein, which contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass. This helps chocolate lovers enjoy their favourite sweet snack, while staying on track with their protein goals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our protein chocolate, unlike regular milk chocolate, has no added sugars and only contains naturally occurring sugars. As an added bonus, it\u2019s also a source of fibre.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Many mainstream brands of milk chocolate also contain palm oil. So if you\u2019re looking to choose a more sustainable option, our protein chocolate is palm oil free.<\/span><\/p>\n

Aside from being a wiser choice, both nutritionally and environmentally, our protein chocolate tastes just as good as regular chocolate. We\u2019ve achieved the same rich, chocolatey taste and velvety texture. Ready to give it a go? Take a look at the stats.<\/span><\/p>\n
