Description
If you want a chocolate whey isolate that keeps the ingredient list short, Protein Supplies Australia WPI Chocolate is worth a look. It is a whey protein isolate powder made in Australia, flavoured with organic raw cacao powder and natural flavours, and sweetened with stevia.
What is WPI Chocolate?
WPI stands for whey protein isolate, a form of whey that is filtered further than a standard concentrate. In this chocolate whey protein isolate, whey protein isolate makes up 90% of the powder and each 30 g serve provides 24 g of protein. The label states it is grass-fed whey and 99% lactose free.
The formula also includes a probiotic culture (Bacillus coagulans) and a blend of digestive enzymes (protease, amylase, cellulase, lactase and lipase). Sunflower lecithin is used as an emulsifier so the powder mixes more smoothly.

How it fits into your routine
A chocolate whey isolate protein powder is an easy way to add protein after training or whenever you need a top-up during the day. Shake it with water for a light drink, blend it with milk and a banana for something thicker, or stir it into oats. The label also lists baked treats and pancakes as suitable uses, so it can go into your weekend baking too.
If you like variety, the same base is available as vanilla WPI, chocolate peanut butter WPI and unflavoured WPI.
How to use
Mix, shake or blend one 30 g serve (about three heaped tablespoons) with 150 to 200 ml of water or milk. The label suggests 1 to 3 serves per day, depending on your daily dietary needs and the advice of your health professional.
Pack sizes
WPI Chocolate comes in 500 g (16 serves) and 1 kg. Start with the smaller bag if you are new to the flavour, or choose the 1 kg if you already know you will use it regularly. You can also compare other protein powders on our site.
