Boost Ball Product Review

6/10/2019

28 Comments

 
I have always been a fan of making my own protein balls but never quite getting the consistency or taste to my liking, I decided I would leave it to the experts and take my chances with Boost balls.
I first came across their products a year ago after my friend kindly gave me a bag of their chocolate orange mud cake protein balls.

Having only previously heard of bounce balls I quite liked the concept of having smaller bite sized protein balls to munch on after a workout. They were a lot easier to eat as they were not coated in a variety of toppings that like to fall off during consumption, making them super ideal to eat on the go during a busy workday.

One year on and I can honestly say they have become a diet staple for me. I generally like to have them as a post workout treat or with my lunch at work. Just the perfect amount of sweetness to curb any major cravings I usually have when watching my food intake for training optimisation. They also pair excellently with a cuppa or an afternoon coffee.

Boost ball currently stock 4 different flavours:
  • Peanut butter cookie dough
  • Lemon Drizzle
  • Coconut fudge cake
  • Maple cinnamon roll

Picture
Each have their own unique perks but my favourite by far is the Lemon Drizzle protein balls with maple cinnamon roll coming is a close second.

The lemon drizzle balls are super decadent and exceedingly moorish. I have to make sure that I hide any other packets before opening one so that I am not tempted to go from bag to bag… Topped with coconut shreds and a gorgeous lemony zing, if you closed your eyes you would not be able to tell the difference between these protein balls and eating a slice of lemon drizzle!

Maple cinnamon roll is another great product. Takes me back to my childhood of eating all the cinnamon buns from my favourite place Cinnamon square. Unfortunately not so diet friendly. However these protein balls hit the spot. Heat them up in the microwave for 20 seconds and add a bit of cream cheese mixed with vanilla flavouring as frosting and you have a macro friendly pud that is rather satisfying.

Each bag packs between 9g-11g of protein and are around 185kcal per bag!
Not to mention they are vegan friendly and are super affordable. Just 99p in Aldi at the moment.

​Boost ball have also just released a line of protein peanut butters! Yep you heard right PROTEIN PEANUT BUTTER.  Which comes in conveniently sized travel squeezy packs.

Currently available to purchase on their website are:
  • Maple Peanut Butter
  • Chocolate Brownie Peanut Butter
  • Salted Caramel Peanut Butter
 
My current favourite is the maple peanut butter which is great in porridge. The salted caramel and maple flavours are both vegan friendly and use rice/pea protein to give the peanut butter that extra boost.
Picture
 Maple is slightly runnier than the salted caramel however both are equally tasty and do not feel grainy in your mouth which is often a problem with vegan protein products.
The chocolate brownie uses whey protein and is a bit thicker in texture.
