Performance nutrition brand BSN took inspiration from an autumnal treat from the [Cold Stone Creamery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pumpkin-in-the-sky-creation) Signature Creation and is now introducing the SYNTHA-6 [Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pastryinspired-protein-cereals) Pie a La Cold Stone protein powder. The protein powder is based on a premium ice cream product that decadently combines a base of classic French vanilla ice cream with cinnamon, graham cracker pie crust, apple pie filling and caramel. The product is described as having a "milkshake-like flavor and creamy texture" and contains 22 grams of protein per scoop that can be used to help the body refuel at any time of the day.

This new flavor from BSN joins other official Cold Stone Creamery protein powder flavors like Birthday Cake Remix, Berry Berry Berry Good and Cookie Doughn't You Want Some.
