The Protein Works Chocolate Orange Swirl flavor has been developed by the brand as a new taste profile for its signature supplements to help tap into consumer interest in the flavor in the UK market. The flavor features the signature tasting notes of the brand's original chocolate options, but with bright orange citrus notes throughout to give it a festive touch. This speaks to the popularity of orange chocolates during the holiday season and helps to extend it beyond certain months of the year to the rest.
The Protein Works Chocolate Orange Swirl flavor is being offered in the brand's Vegan Protein 360, Whey Protein 360 and the Diet Meal 360 to maximize consumer access to the confectionery-style flavor.
