By Hannah Staveley

Disclaimer-  We at Precious Little Worlds have been sent some yummy goodies thanks to the team over at The Protein Bakery for free in exchange for our honest review.


First of all ,Would like to tell you a little more about who and what they do.

We've found the secret to happiness: Balance. And now we are bringing it across the pond!

So, we know the value of weights and measures. We chose the name Protein Bakery for a good (and healthy) reason. Muscle-building protein is a huge component in all our delicious cookies, brownies, and blondies. Protein makes you feel fuller faster and prevents spikes in blood sugar levels. It's one way to keep the heart beat steady and the body in balance. Every delectable, guilt-free bite is high in dietary fibre, low in gluten, and delivers up to 5 times more protein than the average baked treat.Our trans-fat free, preservative free, and wheat flour-free recipes are also nutritionally balanced. We combine natural ingredients like heart-healthy rolled oats, light brown sugar, and the finest chocolate. We bake small batches from scratch every day with the same attention to perfection as we did on day 1 in November, 1999 in the USA. Our healthier flavors of creative culinary confections boast gourmet accents like swirls of rich peanut butter, tangy cranberries, toasted walnuts, sun-sweetened coconut, and so much more. We can't wait to see what we bake up for the UK and beyond.Be happy—add balance to your life every day!

                                                    More of the range-  WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE USE WHEY PROTEIN TO SUPPLEMENT THEIR HEALTH?
  • Athletes use protein to help repair muscle tissue after a hard work-out.
  • Expected mothers' protein needs increase up to 33% during pregnancy.
  • Aging adults combine good nutrition with adequate amounts of high quality whey protein to help limit muscle and bone loss over time during aging.
  • Healing wounds and surgical incisions require increased amounts of protein and amino acids to initiate the growth of new skin cells during the healing process.
  • Hypertensive individuals use whey protein to help reduce their high levels of blood pressure which is the leading cause of heart disease and stroke.
  • People with high cholesterol turn to whey protein to help reduce their cholesterol levels.
  • Safe for children because it will not spike their blood sugar levels.
  • Diabetics who need to carefully manage food intake use whey protein because it helps control blood glucose levels in their body and for weight management.
  • Weight management is promoted by whey protein because it helps stabilize blood glucose levels by slowing the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream. This in turn reduces hunger by lowering insulin levels and making it easier for the body to burn fat. Whey protein also contains bio active components that help stimulate the release of two appetite-suppressing hormones. Adding whey protein to a mid-day snack or beverage provides healthy energy and may help control food intake at the next meal.
  • Glutathione is found in whey protein and acts as an antioxidant required for a healthy immune system.

If you fall under the category of being wheat intolerant then you should know that all of our baked goods are wheat-free. Everything is high in dietary fiber because we use rolled oats and grind them into flour.WHEAT-FREE! DOES THAT MEAN GLUTEN-FREE?Yes, we are certified Gluten-Free. We grind the finest rolled oats into flour to make our products wheat free and higher in dietary fiber. WHY NOT FAT-FREE?Fat-free products usually taste like the box they come in. In addition to adding balance to our cookies and brownies, taste has always been a top priority. We have found that when something is fat-free, people eat double the amount. The added whey protein helps fill you up, so you don’t feel like eating more and more. Remember, balance is the key.CAN I FREEZE YOUR COOKIES, BROWNIES, AND BLONDIES?Yes.

Our website is our catalog.EVERYTHING YOU COULD EVER NEED TO KNOW ABOUT WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE:What is protein? Protein is a major component of enzymes, hormones, body tissues, the immune system, and virtually every cell and fluid in the body. Protein is made up of building blocks called amino acids. Amino acids can be synthesized in the body, but nine of them, called essential amino acids, must be ingested from food.Whey protein is the name for a collection of globular proteins that can be isolated from whey, a by-product of cheese manufactured from cow's milk.What should someone’s daily intake of protein be? The recommended daily allowance (RDA) of protein is 0.8 grams per a kilogram of body weight. For example, a 130 pound sedentary adult needs 47 grams of protein per a day. This requirement increases with activity, and an adult who exercises regularly needs about 70 grams of protein per day. Athletes need more protein in their diet, often as much as twice the recommended daily allowance.WE LIKE TO KEEP THINGS REGULAR. HIGH IN DIETARY FIBRE:Instead of using White Flour, we grind up rolled oats into powder. Cooking with oat powder lowers the carbohydrates and increases your dietary fiber intake.ARE YOU A VEGETARIAN LOOKING TO EXPAND YOUR PALATE?So many Protein Bakery eaters are vegetarians. Finding a protein source that is also a delicious sweet treat is not easy, and our vegetarian customer base is very complimentary and very vocal.First, you should know that Whey Protein is a dairy protein and comes from cow's milk. It does NOT come from animal flesh. We are a great product for vegetarians, not for vegans. Secondly, Whey Protein contains sufficient levels of all essential amino acids. Did you know that plant proteins tend to be limited in one or more essential amino acids? In fact, whey protein isolate has approximately 50% more leucine (an amino acid that plays a key role in promoting muscle protein synthesis and muscle growth) than soy protein.ARE YOUR PRODUCTS GOOD FOR DIABETICS?Please remember we are bakers, not doctors. However, many diabetics love The Protein Bakery. The added protein helps to prevent a spike a blood sugar. We are so lucky to hear fabulous feedback from people that really enjoy our product and are diabetic. We suggest the cookies over the brownies as they have a lower sugar content. As with anything, check with your doctor first if concerned.                                                                                                                                  <Our Thoughts >Overall from what had sampled from The Protein Bakery they do live up to truly delicious goodness!And yes I was a little worried at first as I have trieda lot of healthy treats only to find that they justdon't cut it, but with these you will not be disappointed.We at Precious Little Worlds are giving a highly recommend to The Protein Bakery’s for superb goodies for both taste and nutrition!
