The Gâto Protein ‘n’ Cream cookies are the latest range of products from the brand that will provide consumers with a way to indulge their sweet tooth, while still keeping up with their dietary needs. The cookies are positioned as the world's first vegan product of its kind that's also low in carbs to make it well-suited to the needs of consumers on a high-protein diet. The range features four flavor options including Salted Caramel, Peanut Caramel, Chocolate Orange and Vanilla Cream.
Co-Founder Kim Lamza spoke on the new Gâto Protein ‘n’ Cream cookies saying, "At Gâto, we set out to bake the ultimate cookies and here they are: our childhood faves, but better for you and the planet. Our latest range is so exciting as it’s a world-first – a protein packed cookie with 70%+ less sugar and carbs versus similar biscuits. Our treats are also vegan and packed with natural ingredients – sweeteners are a no go for us. We’re thrilled to be launching our new Protein ‘n’ Cream range to Boots, it seems fitting as the Aberdeen Boots was the first to give me a summer job when I was back at school.”
