Today I'm going to review Muscle Mousse, which is a protein mousse dessert, just think protein shake that sets. I first came across Muscle Mousse at the Body Power Expo 2014, tried a sample and bought a tub straight away!
I'll go over a few points about Muscle Mousse to give you a better idea about it.
Taste (5 out of 5) -
Muscle Mousse comes in 6 flavours, and I've been lucky enough to try 2 of them.
Peanut-Choc Caramel: This was the first tub I bought. It tastes a lot like Snickers or a Babyruth bar; nutty, chocolatey, caramelly, mmmmmmm, amazing. It tastes really decadent and not at all like any other protein shake type product I've ever tried. It is on the sweet side but I don't think you'd get this unless you had a sweet tooth anyway!
Butterscotch: Fantastic. Really, really amazing flavour. They actually had samples of this at Body Power which made me want to buy this product. They had actually sold out of this flavour though which is why I got the Peanut-Choc Caramel, I was disappointed until I got it home and tried it, both are awesome. It tastes like Butterscotch Angel Delight (the best Angel Delight flavour in my opinion!) and it isn't as sweet as the Peanut-Choc Caramel.
I can't wait to try every single flavour... White chocolate next I think.
Versatility (5 out of 5) -
The versatility of this product is absolutely great. Awesome as a mousse. Awesome as a thick shake if you don't let it set (sounds kinda weird, tried it, actually really good). It can also be made into a healthy high protein cheesecake (recipe coming... check back soon). You can mix it up with water, milk, almond milk, all tastes great. I'd be interested to try chocolate milk with the chocolate or banana Muscle Mousse, or different flavoured waters. I'll let you know how that goes.
Packaging (4 out of 5) -
I love the packaging for this product. It's super simple and effective. It was great seeing the Muscle Mousse Moose at Body Power, although I felt super sorry for the guy inside as it was really hot without the costume on top! My only criticism is the size! I want more, bigger tubs please!
Calorie/Macro Breakdown -
Each 50g serving (2 scoops) has:
175 Calories
30g Protein
12g Carbs
<1g Fat
The product has a good carb to protein ratio, and it's as you'd expect for such a tasty product. I would've actually expected much more fat, so I'm really pleased with the sub 1g.
Conclusion (4.8 out of 5) -
This is an awesome product. Will I re-buy it? YES. Do I use it everyday? No. At the moment I can't really afford to use this product every day, it sells for around £20-£25 for just 15 servings. So I'd rather keep it and use it as a treat for myself. A treat for cutting or bulking in my opinion.
Great product, try it out!
