Back in 2015, Matt & Hayley Hunt started the award-winning brand, The Protein Ball Co. with the sole aim of making healthy protein snacks easier and more accessible. After millions of balls later, the team have a healthier direction that they are focused on by adding vitamins B12, C, D3 and high fibre to all their products.
It was important as a brand to tailor to all bases, so when choosing the protein source for the vegan balls it was a necessity that the product was as beneficial and natural to the body as the protein used in the other balls. After doing a lot of research the final element was found, brown rice protein and pea protein as neither contain allergens which means everyone can enjoy them.
Directing them to a healthier product line was the addition of vitamins to their balls, these specific vitamins were chosen due to the benefits they provide. B12 supports energy levels, helps make red blood cells and keeps the immune system healthy, Vitamin C supports energy production from food, keeps the immune system functioning and helps the formation of collagen and Vitamin D3 which supports bone health, keeps muscles healthy and helps the immune system to function optimally.
Here are some great snack options from the brand. The Protein Ball Co. Coffee Oat Muffin breakfast balls are a combination that one thinks it will not work, but it does. Real smoky ground coffee, roasted hazelnut butter and sweet, rich cocoa powder are the main ingredients in this product, for the crunch element gluten-free oats, cacao powder and cacao nibs were added. These breakfast balls can be enjoyed straight out of the pack or warmed up for an extra surprise.
For one of the vegan options why not try, The Protein Ball Co. Raspberry Brownie vegan balls. The right balance of slight tart undertone from fruity raspberry with a deliciously sweet mixture of brownie ingredients. To achieve the brownie cake texture smooth, rich cashew butter, cocoa butter, dark chocolate and crunchy cacao nibs were used. These fruity brownies are high in fibre and have no added sugar.
