We've got a suitably 'Sunday-Funday' one for you here, folks (well, two to be precise!)...the brand new filled - yes, filled - USN TRUST Protein Cookies!! On the back of the success of their awesome TRUST Crunch Bars (a team fave!) we've played on 'TRUST-ing' USN when it comes to fun, foodie bits already...more specifically, though, I wonder if their real gift is for wonderfully excessive, over-the-top fillings; as you can see from our snack-stack photo, and following the lead set by the caram

As the temperature is beginning to drop and night starting to trespass more and more on the working day i'm minded that, soon enough, that wonderful scent of burning logs will fill the autumnal evening air (have to say...always kinda loved this time of year!) Jumping from crisp to CRISPY, though, fires don't just bring warmth and comfort...they offer ample opportunity to make a satisfyingly sticky mess by setting alight to foodstuffs that, well, weren't really designed to be set alight!!Whimsica

Whilst mince pies, Miniature Heroes and advent calendars are, unbelievably, already gracing supermarket shelves, it *does* feel kinda weird, barely into October, hitting you with this one...buuuttt, then again, neither we (nor Grenade) could WAIT to share this sweet, spiced sensation with you for another year!!That's right, folks...for Christmas 2019 you've got another chance (whilst limited edition stocks last!!) to catch Grenade's Gingerbread (man) Carb Killa protein bar!Truth be told, we neve

No matter the brand or snack, the timeless tag-team of Chocolate + Caramel always seems to win out; anecdotally, statistically or otherwise, this classic combo appears universally alluring.'Well, duh?!', some of you might say but, this in mind, it does seem odd that O.G #CheatClean kings, Quest Nutrition - makers of the first protein-packed food bar that indisputably bridged the snack-gap between 'functional' (boring) and 'candy' (fun!) - had, until now, not flirted with this Holy Grail sweet-tr

It's official, folks (it should that be 'OAT-ficial' in this case? That work?!)...abundantly textured, crunchy bars and snacks are definitely 'in'!! In the last 2 weeks alone we've had a new USN Trust Crunch bar flavour, the new Applied Protein Crunch bars and, just last week, two new Applied Indulgence Squares...now? No less than FOUR epic flavours - 2 veggie, 2 vegan - of the brand new Oatein Millionaire Crunch bars!That's a whole lotta CRuNcHhhh!!!It has to be said, in terms of the

As you guys know, it's always important to walk before you can run - nail the execution by 'applying' the fundamentals, if you will - and Applied Nutrition did just that with the similarly vegan-friendly Belgian Dark Choc progenitor of the two delicious, elegantly-flavoured, biscuitty Protein Indulgence bars before you now...Belgian Chocolate Mint and, our new favourite, Belgian Chocolate Orange!This new plant-based pair really do take Applied Nutrition Indulgence Squares to a whole new level...

Fair to say we're pretty well known for our baked delights over here and, on that, here's introducing AMBROSIA!...waaaaiiit!! Thing is? For once we're talking less 'Devon knows how they make it so creamy' and more... 'nectar of the gods'!In more ways than one The Ambrosia Collective bring something different to the Mix and, indeed, something different to the fitness/supplement market as a whole; definitely not Devon's finest custard, Mike (@mikerashid), Sean and Marc (@marclobliner of MTS Nutrit

Sooo...bread week on BakeOff? Yawn. Never a fave of ours. But it's OK!! Why live vicariously when you can so easily do better at home and...packed with protein, too!Launched Sept 1st (crazy we're only now getting round to introducing it properly...been WAY too many exciting new things hitting the Mix...and, scary thing is, we're nowhere near done yet!!) the latest launch from MyMuscleMug is a Bake Off classic (and a particular fave of ours!!) - Cherry Bakewell!!A typically authentic, low su
