Afternoon Everyone,

My regular followers will know I am in the process of getting back to being fit and healthy. Gone are the sweet treats this week and hello bodyweight work outs and eating right. Plus my followers will know how much of a sucker I am for sweet things. I have loved my cherry bakewell tarts and being able to smell like one with the cherry bakewell shower cream. Now I’m taking it to another level with the cherry bakewell protein shake!

I love cherry bakewells and what better way to have them incorporated into my healthy eating plan… in the form of a protein shake! Quick and easy and I get the taste of those little darlings! I wondered whether this was going to taste like a bakewell tart or was it going to taste to synthetic and fake. I really hoped this was going to taste good, considering I have 1kg to get through! So I open the pack and take a good deep whiff of the powder. It certainly smells like a cherry bakewell tart, but will it taste like one? I used the scoop provided, added it to the recommended amount of water in my Protein Works shaker and gave it the shake of a lifetime! Also shaking my ass whilst I do it too… all burns calories! The shake was quite watery. I think I would use a little less water or maybe do two scoops instead to give it more of a milkshake consistency. Now for the moment of truth… I take a gulp of the protein powder and savoured it in my mouth for a bit to get the full flavour. It tasted like a bakewell tart!… Hurrah! The flavour surprised me. This doesn’t taste fake at all. It is a little sweet for my liking. I do like the almond and cherry taste I get. I do get the hint of flavour of the pastry too in this shake. How the hell do they do that?

All in all, this protein shake was nice and I would have it again. Just as well with the amount I have to get through! I don’t think I would have more than one a day, especially if I am going to be putting two scoops of powder in it. It would be nice if the powder was able to bring some thickness with it too as I don’t think this is going to make me feel full. I know it isn’t a meal replacement shake, but I did drink this after I had my breakfast of porridge and done a work out this morning. It was nice to have a shake that tastes like one of my favourite things to eat. Who knew it was possible?!
