For reference I always review my protein mixed with chilled water in a shaker with nothing added or in a blender with water and ice.

Taste - I can taste the caramel, and it kind of tastes like those hard caramels. I really have no basis on what to expect so I tried to expect nothing and its really nice. Its creamy and caramel-y and really quite nice. Almost coffee-ish. You do kind of have to "try" and figure out what this tastes like almost as if the flavor is a bit weak.

8/10

Sweetness - This is just perfect in the sweetness, not overpowering at all.

10/10

Texture - Quite "thin" in water, I think they could do with some thickener in this stuff. I'm sure it would be excellent with milk, and when blended with a few cubes of ice it is better but you can still tell no where near as thick as other brands. I'm a sucker for thick shakes.

7/10

Nutrient Profile - As with most of the other flavors in ON 100% Whey there is 120 calories per scoop and when you are getting a flavor hit like this I am more than happy with the calories, and with only 1 gram of fat per serving and 4g of carbohydrates it is still very low carbohydrate friendly.

7/10

Mixability - This stuff mixes very, very well, just like all the ON 100% Whey I have tried. Water + a shaker is all you need, a few quick shakes and there will be no powder left on the bottom or sides.

9/10

Smell in packet - The smell in the tub of this is quite chemically. Nothing like caramel or toffee or fudge haha. Kind of like a chemical malt.

4/10

Smell in shake - That malt smell is still there, maybe that's supposed to be the fudge flavor. But not off putting at all.

7/10

Cost - As with most flavors of ON you can pick this up for relatively cheap from a online store or even from New World in Victoria Park if you are lucky enough to live nearby. This flavor seems to be hard to get hold of though.

8/10

Side Effects - None so far

9/10

Overall 7.6/10 I would consider buying a tub of this, and I think it would actually go very very well as Ice cream or in coffee too.

Better flavors in this brand I have tried - Cookies N' Cream is about equal to this flavour.

Hey everyone

is this the same one as the No1 protein awarded in BB.coms supplement awards?

whats so good about it?

Im newbie with powders(ive read a krap load of gym info on BB,.com but its all marketting on there,each of their products being 'years ahead' of each other in all.

One thing I can see in this product is that its got 24g of protein per scoop?

Thats quite alot compard to others? double if im not wrong?

thanks alot!

[Russ]

Nah 24 grams per scoop is only an average protein powder mate. Nothing special there.

[DeeDuub]

Yea 24g is average but only among the best protein powders! :nod:

and since ON doesnt contain all the additive and flavouring shit that others have,its one of the best..Million unbiased :nod: reviews say so..Dynamite is another good one ..Xtremenutrition.co.nz 8)

But yea which other powders compare with ON?

THanks
