Protein Works | Vegan Pea Protein - Black Innovation, Chocolate Silk, Premium Vegan Protein, Pea Protein Isolate, 24g Protein Per Serving, Low Fat, Low Carbs, Plant-Based & Natural, 33 Servings, 1kg

I recently tried the Protein Works Pea Protein Isolate in the Chocolate Silk flavour, and I am thoroughly impressed. As someone who follows a plant-based diet, finding a high-quality protein powder that ticks all the boxes can be challenging, but this one does just that.First off, the taste is fantastic. Chocolate Silk is rich and smooth, making it a pleasure to drink. Unlike some other plant-based proteins, there’s no gritty texture or unpleasant aftertaste. I mix it with water or almond milk, and it blends well without any clumps.The nutritional profile is impressive. It’s 100% plant-based and natural, with no added sugar or gluten, which is perfect for my dietary needs. Each serving provides a solid amount of protein, making it ideal for post-workout recovery or as a supplement to my daily intake. I’ve noticed an improvement in my energy levels and muscle recovery since I started using it.Another great feature is its versatility. I’ve used it in smoothies, baking, and even in my morning oats, and it works wonderfully in all these applications. It adds a nice chocolate flavour without overpowering the other ingredients.The 1kg packaging is convenient and provides good value for money. The resealable bag keeps the powder fresh and is easy to store.The only minor downside is that it can be slightly more expensive than some other plant-based protein powders, but the quality and taste justify the price.Overall, Protein Works Pea Protein Isolate is a top-notch product for anyone looking for a high-quality, plant-based protein supplement. It’s tasty, nutritious, and versatile, making it a fantastic addition to any diet. Highly recommended!

I've tried many plant-based protein powders over the years and this has eventually become my go-to choice. I got tired of chasing the best price across powders with very inconsistent quality and now pick this one up regularly. It's usually reasonably priced (could be a bit cheaper but that's the case with pretty much all powders).Provided you give it a good shake It mixes well (don't let it sit for too long or it clumps), it's a fairly thick mix so I just use the one scoop, it tastes decent and packs a good amount of protein. I usually mix it with creatine and psyllium husk as a morning pre-workout shake.In the periods that I've been actively counting my calories and protein, I've been noticeably putting on muscle, so for me personally this has been a quality protein for lean muscle gain.

I have not tried many protein shakes so I have none I can really compare this to, however I have just made my first shake from this packet. So here is what I found..The 'tear here' as with most packets is useless, use scissors! I tore this and still couldnt get in making it worse with shaky arms from the work out..You have to use 300ml of water or plant based drink, it seems like alot, just over one of my usual cups I drink from. I will be drinking it OVER the hour, let alone within the hour after workouts. I am using an oat drink.I had to actually DIG around in the powder to find the grey scoop, which was a little messy. It did though give me the opportunity to give the powder a good 'feel'. It is very fine and silky, soft feeling, which was actually quite pleasant to feel.Now, I dont have an actual shaker so I had to use something else (yes it went everywhere but it was a contained messed). The drink itself is very thick, though not too thick that it makes it harder to swallow. It is very smooth though I can JUST detect some fine specks.The packet itself, doesnt close up very easily at all. I still have that to tackle when I get back into the kitchen.The taste.. this is where I am uncertain. Whilst it isnt as bad as I expected here is a definite strong taste present that unfortunately stays in your mouth afterwards. I can only assume this is the 'taste of protein' as I cannot recognise it as being chocolate. Whilst not overpowering I can smell/taste is as I go to take a drink, it is unmissable and I do not think I could drink a whole 300ml of this. I am approaching half way down my cup and I am already eyeing it with uncertainty. Maybe a half dose would be best...EDIT: My next shake I made half the amount of milk/powder and added a level tsp of cocoa powder. MUCH better! Ok I am only getting half the amount of protein though it is better than none.April 2024 update: I am still drinking this using half portions! I tried the unflavoured, though it wasnt as nice so I am now mixing half choc half unflavoured. I tell you what, it is SO nice!.I bought this on offer 1kg bag of chocolate for £13. I dont know WHY its currently on for £70+. Please dont buy it at that price. The usual price has been around £18-£20.( I am updating my review whilst I am here to buy the large pack!)

Very disappointed with this protein powder. No matter how much I shake or stir it, it never blends properly and always leaves a gritty, grainy texture. I've tried mixing it with both cold and room temp water, but the result is the same every time. Haven’t tried with milk yet but I doubt it will be any different. The taste is ok, very sweet chocolate taste. I bought this expecting a smooth shake, but it feels like drinking powder that never fully dissolves. Unfortunately, I won't be buying it again.

Cant have milk or soy so this is the only one i can have. Took me ages to find it by i swear by it now. Its a bit gritty but all Pea protein powder is. This is easily the best one. Tastes even better if you use almond milk and even a couple eggs in a shake with it.

Not very chocolatey, smoothest in texture I’ve tried yet .

Well packaged and a flavour that is subtle and not overly sweet.The value is incredible as it’s for 1kg! Very good price.The only confusing thing is the included 70ml scoop with is approx 38g and not the 30grams that the nutritional info is based against. I just use a 60ml scoop which is 30gramsDefinitely recommend

I'm intolerant to wheat, soya, and milk, so a lot of protein powders are off limits to me. Being pea protein, this is pretty much the only option for me that doesn't upset my stomach. I use this in my overnight oats, which gives me a good level of protein from my breakfast.The texture of the power is quite light and dusty, compared to whey protein which tends to be a bit heavier. I don't personally mix it with water to drink, so I can't comment on the texture for drinking.Overall, I think the value for money here is great, only needing to buy a replacement every 4 weeks or so.

Für meinen Bedarf eine gute Kombination aus Eiweißgehalt, Brennwert und Geschmack. Als Tip empfehle ich es gut durchzumixen/schütteln, einige Minuten stehen lassen und vor dem Trinken nochmals schütteln. Sonst kann es sein, dass im Hals feine "Krümel" stören ;-).

Die Qualität finde ich super toll, aber den Geschmack sehr klassisch.

Ich habe mir das Produkt bestellt, da es sehr viel Protein liefert. Die ersten 3–4 Shakes waren geschmacklich echt schwierig runterzubekommen. Mit der Zeit habe ich mich aber daran gewöhnt, und mittlerweile schmeckt er sogar.Wenn ich mich allerdings an die angegebenen Mengen halte, ist der Shake ziemlich schwer verdaulich. Mit etwas mehr Flüssigkeit ist das aber auch kein Problem.Werde das Pulver auf jeden Fall wieder bestellen!

Gutes Produkt aber leider deutlich zu süß. Kein Zucker, aber massiv Süßungsmittel

Versprochen so ein drecks Proteinshake habe ich noch nie ich meinen Leben gesehen, so ein Schmutz muss verboten werden. Es ist eine Beleidigung das es überhaupt Geld kostet
