We’ve said this since its initial launch: MetaLab in South Africa tends to do things and make moves more common in other parts of the world, like the US, Europe, and even Australia, far from the usually simple and cost-effective strategies in its home country. It continues to be creative and innovative, and do things that make it stand out, the latest example of that being its newest supplement, a functional protein food formula that goes by the name of Instant Protein Mug Cake.
As per the name, MetaLab Instant Protein Mug Cake is a powder product that you pour a serving of into a bowl or mug, mix with some water, throw in the microwave for just a minute and a half, and voilà, you have yourself a soft and decadent cake that is packed with protein. The item is making its way to market in the one Dutch Chocolate flavor, perfect for a compact cake experience, and it’s incredibly lean with 13g of protein, low sugar and carbohydrates, and just 129 calories.
The protein-to-calorie ratio is extremely impressive, as if you scale up the MetaLab Instant Protein Mug Cake to one and a half servings for that traditional 20g of protein, the calorie balance ends up sitting under 200, a rare ratio for a protein snack. You will have to wait a little longer for the latest creation from MetaLab, as it’s not available yet, but is going to be sometime later this coming week over at metalabsupps.com.
