Description
Cake batter is one of the more popular dessert-style flavours in the protein world, and Nutricost Whey Protein Isolate in Cake Batter puts it into a whey isolate. It provides 30 g of protein per serve, is naturally flavoured, and comes in a 2 lb (907 g) tub with 25 serves.
What is Nutricost Cake Batter Whey Protein Isolate?
Whey protein isolate is more heavily refined than whey protein concentrate, so each scoop contains a higher concentration of protein. This Nutricost cake batter protein powder is made from instantised whey protein isolate, which is designed to dissolve more easily, with natural flavours for the cake batter taste.
The ingredients are whey protein isolate (whey protein, sunflower lecithin), natural flavours, sodium chloride and sucralose. Nutricost states the product is third party tested, made in a GMP-compliant facility, non-GMO and gluten free.

Who it suits
This flavour is aimed at people who want a dessert-style shake that still delivers a high protein serve. At 30 g of protein per scoop it is on the higher side, so you may need less powder to reach your daily target. The 2 lb tub is a manageable size for trying the flavour before moving up to a bulk tub, and sodium is listed at 250 mg per serve, which is worth checking if you watch your salt intake.
How it fits into your routine
A cake batter flavour suits people who prefer a sweet, dessert-like shake over a plain or chocolate one. Mix it with cold water or milk after training, or whenever you want an easy protein top-up. If you would like a different flavour from the same brand, there is also a Nutricost Chocolate PB whey isolate in a 5 lb tub, and you can compare other brands in our protein powder range.
How to use
Mix 1 scoop (about 1/3 cup) with 6 to 10 oz (about 180 to 300 ml) of water, milk or your preferred beverage. Adjust the amount of liquid to suit your taste.
