Why trust us?

Here’s a treat for the coconut lovers among us. And for anyone who wants to feed their muscles the protein they need in a most delicious way. Just a few ingredients and our Whey Protein, and you’ll have a creamy coconut ice cream dream.

Preparation

• Prepare the ice cream maker according to its instructions.
• Empty one can of coconut milk into a large bowl.
• Open the other can of coconut milk. Use a spoon to scoop just the coconut cream off the top, and add that to the same bowl.
• Our Tip: Put the second can of coconut milk into the fridge for a few hours beforehand to make it easier to separate the coconut cream from the liquid. Save the liquid from the coconut milk for curries, soups, or smoothies.
• Whisk in the Whey Protein.
• Pour the coconut ice cream mix into the ice cream maker. Turn on the machine and let it stir until it creates a delicious coconut ice cream. Make sure to follow the ice cream maker's instructions.
• Serve the ice cream immediately, garnished with toppings.
• Or, if you're going to save it for later, put it into a container and garnish with the coconut flakes. Cut the Protein Balls into quarters and press into the ice cream. Freeze.
• Take the coconut ice cream out of the freezer to soften up for 10 minutes at room temperature before you plan to serve it. This will make it creamier.
• Enjoy!
