Just had my first glass of frosted cinnamon bun. I wound up talking to my dog while filling the glass with water and wound up with the full 16 oz the glass can hold. Typically I fill to about 10-12 oz as I prefer a thicker more pronounced taste when having protein around the house. So I went in at this point expecting a watered down ordeal, but was very happy how thick the shake was even with that much water. I took a picture here as well so u can see the thickness. I can't wait to see how amazingly thick the shake will be when I use my normal amount of water or damn when I use the milk, should be epic.
Mixed with a spoon and while it wasn't the quickest process it wasn't bad at all. Sometimes these things foam up fiercely or u get stuck smooshing the protein clumps again and again against the side of the glass. I didn't need to deal with that at all. The only issue and not even an issue was that it took a cpl sec longer than I'm used to to get it mixed good. But I'm impatient by nature too so I def wouldn't hold this against the protein.
A lot of times u get sediment at the bottom or always by the walls when using a glass. Nothing at all.
Satiability was excellent. Actually really filling fir a shake. I normally have a bit of cottage cheese right as I go to bed but pretty full still an hour after drinking the shake so may just forego the cottage cheese tonight.
And finally to what everyone's been waiting for, the taste.
I've had this flavor from a host of companies and most taste the same, which is good really. Never had a truly awful cinnamon bun outside the ones with those candies jellies in them, and same can be said about protein versions of cinnamon bun.
CL's Promore Frosted Cinnamon Bun is excellent IMO. It's thick like I mentioned before yet super super smooth, a real pleasure to taste each sip. I found there to be a. Try prevalent cinnamon taste, as it should be. If u aren't a fan of cinnamon-y cinnamon then u may not let me this as much as I did. However it's not so strong that you're gagging as can happen when there's too much of the spice. It's perfectly blended imo. And while it's not overly pronounced, very subtle actually, but if u savor your shakes like I do u can gather a sense of the frosting, it's a sweet creamy like overtone to the follow through of the initial cinnamon taste. Very nicely done.
It's only been an hour but no repetition yet, which can happen to me with various spicings. So that's great too.
Tomorrow I'm going to have my second shake in the morning and I'm going to mix it with a cup and a half if either almond milk or Non fat milk, haven't decided yet. But stay tuned that review will be up sometime tomorrow morning.
Any questions regarding this initial review or if anyone has anything they want me to pay special attention to going forward let me know and I'll do my best to answer those things going forward.
