Bulk Pure Whey Protein Powder | Raspberry | 22g Protein and 5g BCAAs per Scoop | Whey Concentrate Shake | Low Sugar | Supports Muscle Growth and Repair | Smooth Mixing | Vegetarian | 2.5kg

Having used a fair number of protein brands out there over the years and struggling to find one that is affordable, tastes nice (or even ok), and mixes well, I am pleased to find that bulk powders satisfies all three of these criteria. It, especially the larger bag here (I ordered 2.5kg), represents excellent value for money for what is a decent and high quality product that will last me a fair amount of time. I’ve broken down my review into various aspects below. The powder arrived swiftly after ordering, securely packaged, and in excellent, undamaged condition.TasteOk, so a load of protein powders I have had in the past taste absolutely awful. Bulk Powders, as any protein powder, won’t be winning any culinary awards but does, in my mind, taste far and away better than a lot of what’s out there. Over the years I have tried vanilla, chocolate, chocolate cookies, raspberry, and strawberry. All of them are great and very drinkable with just the right amount of flavour and sweetness. Ordinarily, vanilla and strawberry are my favourites, and I find they all taste (much!) better when mixed with milk. With water they’re ok but are much more ‘thin’ and lacking in a bit of depth of flavour in my opinion.Vanilla, chocolate and strawberry all mix well into smoothies too and complement, rather than overpower, other ingredients. I like to make a coffee/protein shake in the morning and mix in some espresso shots with a vanilla shake. The vanilla especially is useful in baking and other less traditional uses for protein powder and blends well into recipes.TextureI usually shake mine up with milk, which with a little shaking produces a relatively smooth and palatable drink without lumps and, importantly, is not gritty. It is almost an in between of a protein shake and a milkshake.I’m less of a fan with water, but for me that holds true whatever protein powder I am using. It’s more thin and I prefer the thicker and creamier texture of when it is mixed with milk. However, mixed with water still produces a perfectly fine shake that is not, unlike many other brands, lumpy and gritty. I typically mix with water when taking it to the gym with me as I don’t want to have milk in my bag and am not disappointed with the results.QualityBulk Powders protein powder are high quality in terms of nutritional profile. Even though it’s much cheaper, it stands up against more established premium (read: expensive) brands. I’ve had no issues with using this and it’s a fantastic dietary supplement.Storage and measurementUnlike many brands out there that come in bulky tubs, Bulk Powders come in a durable plastic bag with a resealable (zip-lock style) top. The material the bag is made of makes it as sturdy as any tub and I have never had any issues of them breaking or tearing or any other issues. It’s easier to store as it’s much more flexible and has a bit of give to it where solid plastic would not. The only issue I do have sometimes is being able to reseal it successfully. This isn’t usually a problem, and the seal is very useful in maintaining the integrity of the product over time by keeping out air and moisture, but is a little frustrating and fiddly at times. That said, I struggle with most seals of this kind and my issues here are likely a product of that as opposed to this particular bag.A powder scoop, measuring one serving of powder, that comes with the bag is absolutely wonderful. It’s easy to use and to accurately measure your servings without having to faff around with spoons and scales. It’s made of a durable plastic and is a really handy addition to the powder.Value for moneyBulk Powders are definitely one of the most affordable producers of protein powder out there. They are consistently one of the cheapest brands out there and you can save a great deal of money when purchasing from them, especially if you buy in (as their name punnily suggests) bulk. Even though it’s cheap and excellent value for money, it does not compromise on quality, making it a sure bet if you want to add some protein to your diet.SummaryIn summary, this protein powder from Bulk Powders is high quality, excellent value for money and, in my opinion, consistently of a much better taste and texture than other brands out there. It stores well and lasts a long time and is housed in a convenient and high quality bag with a really useful scoop added. Having used this brand for years (for many different flavours as well as their creatine supplement, which is also excellent by the way) I am confident in giving this a wholehearted five stars and a high recommendation.If you’re going to get yourself some protein powder, you’d do well considering Bulk Powders.If you’ve found this review in any way useful or informative, I’d be grateful if you could let me know by clicking the “helpful” button below :)

Due to illness, I can't eat the things I'd like to. And because of reduced protein intake, it was suggested a protein shake might fill the void of that particular shortfall.I looked high and low for the ideal product and finally settled on Bulk.First of all...'BULK'. Really? Was Weight, or Muscle, or Big, taken? And that ooohhhh so attractive gray plastic you wrap your powder in! Mmmm, be still my heaving chest 🙄🤦🏻‍♂️.Anyway, apart from their Marketing department needing the boot, the product is very good. Does it deliver the 72 grams of protein per 100 grams of powder? I couldn't tell you. I hope so.But the real reason I'm writing this review is because it tastes absolutely phenomenal. I bought the chocolate cookie mix and its insanely good. You know the Frijj shakes; chocolate, strawberry, etc? It tastes like they do. It's that good. I hope it serves its purpose delivering some much needed protein? But even if it doesn't, its an outstanding milkshake to look forward to everyday 😍😋

The only problem with this is it needs very vigorous shaking or a whisk to get it mixed properly - and you do get a few lumps compared to other products. But it's good value, and the strawberry flavour is lovely when mixed with milk.

There's not a lot of fuss with this. It doesn't taste horrible, but I'm not trading my juice for it. Has a little aftertaste but what protein powder doesn't!It doesn't work miracles, so you actually have to put in the work to see results. I definitely see more growth when I do the work and take this consistently.If you're on the fence, cross over already. If this won't do it, nothing else will.

This is a reasonably priced whey powder that doesn't seem to make crazy claims, or not that I have read. This helps with my protein intake and is simple to use. Vanilla flavour? I guess although it isn't a strong flavour. Will it turn you into a muscled machine? No but it may help. the hard work is down to you. Depending on your workout programme it will depend on how fast you use it, it suggests up to 3 times a day but I feel that is probably more for someone a lot more gym oriented than me so I will use it once or twice a day and, as such, it lasts a fair while. Once it gets low I will order some more. I have tried a bunch of different ones but I like this one.

Im usually a My Protein customer, however their pricing for Whey seems to be getting too expensive even after their discounts. I have known of Bulk for some time but never tried until now. The flavour is nice and the powder breaks down easily for a smooth shake with little effort.

The chocolate version is a bit sweet for me so I added a good spoonful of organic cacao powder with the milk to tone it down. Mixed with hand blender for 10 seconds for smooth finish. Wow!! Chocolate wonderland.

These powders are good but this isn't the best of the flavours imo.
