The Benope Buttermellow Cookie Protein shake has been given a convenience-led overhaul with a pouch-style packaging that prioritizes an easy consumption experience. The product is arriving in South Korea and boasts a sweet, buttery cookie flavor, but is rated to deliver impressive nutritional benefits including 20-grams of protein, 125-calories and 2.3-grams of sugar in each 40-gram serving. The smooth, sweet shake is paired with crunchy cookie inclusions that complement the texture to elevate it into a more complex nutritional treat for post-workout consumption or everyday snacking.
The Benope Buttermellow Cookie Protein shake is making its debut at GS25 convenience stores in South Korea and speaks to the burgeoning popularity of pouch-style packaging into the adult nutrition category.
