Syntrax Nectar Sweets Whey Protein Isolate, Vanilla Bean Torte by Syntrax® - Powdered Meals / Shake
Vanilla Torte is very much like a vanilla bean, down to the little black specs. If you like vanilla, this is a great selection. It tastes great mixed with water, soy milk, or skim milk in a shaker with shaker ball. It's my favorite of the four choices of Nectar I've purchased.
(indicates that they have used the product) Mine just came today. I ordered three kinds~ Chocolate truffle, Vanilla bean torte, and Fuzzy navel. One scoop = 23 grm protein. 90 to 100 calories per scoop.
Pure protein isolate, no sugar, carbs ( 1 grm carbs depending on flavor) or fat. Low cholesterol. Yes, it's sweetened with Splenda. I really like it thou. Fluffy. Vanilla has specks of vanilla bean. 4th protein powder I've tried.
I guess Syntrax also has a "natural" Nectar in 2 flavors, orange and peach~ sweetened with Stevia.
I found it too sweet for my taste buds, it leaves a dark residue in the cup that looks like small granules of grit. I am not sure what it is. It was simply too sweet for my preference, had used it in coffee only and did not care for it. The flavor was tolerable had it not been too sweet.
(indicates that they have used the product)YUM YUM YUM! What a happy change of pace from the either too-bland, too-sweet or too-chemical tastes of so many of the protein supplements I've been testing! The two flavors were nicely balanced, the drink wasn't very sweet, it mixed up nice and thin, and I actually *enjoyed* drinking it. I suspect this one will be a keeper for later on after surgery, once my tastebuds have recovered from the acute postop phase :-) .
