Baking protein contents
General information about baking protein
Our baking protein is specially made to suit the needs of fitness-conscious (hobby) bakers. Tasty or fitness-friendly? With our baking protein you no longer need to choose. It replaces 30-50% of the flour used in standard recipes.
Usage of the baking protein significantly increases the protein proportion of the recipe and reduces the carbohydrate proportion when compared with standard baking recipes. It doesn't make any difference whether you're making pizza, bread or cake dough. Baking protein is suitable for all types of baking recipes.
Made for baking
The basis and main ingredient of our baking protein is milk protein. Milk protein is made up of casein and whey. While casein is naturally heat-stable, pure whey protein already denatures at temperatures of 60°-70 °C.
To guarantee heat stability up to 180 °C the casein and whey protein proportions in our baking protein are coordinated in such a way that normal baking temperatures do not affect the structure of the proteins. That's why the baking protein lets you enjoy an unadulterated taste and a good consistency in your favorite recipes.
Fast baking and optimal consistencyWhen baking with pure protein the dough consistency often changes. The dough becomes less fluffy than when baking with flour. Our baking protein contains cream of tartar baking powder to reduce that phenomenon. In contrast to most standard raising agents, our cream of tartar baking powder does not contain phosphates and has a mild flavor.

Baking protein for muscle building
In the muscle building phase it is important to consume both sufficient calories and sufficient protein to create a basis for muscle growth and mass building. Integrating food that is rich in protein into everyday life as often as possible makes it easier to achieve this daily protein intake.
With baking protein, pizza dough, bread rolls or sweet baked goods transform from pure calories to a protein source in everyday meals. Because baking protein reduces carbohydrate consumption it is also useful in the definition phase.
Baking protein for your beach body
When training, adequate protein consumption is just as important as a reduction in calories. Food with baking protein helps to achieve this protein intake. This means that you can even eat pancakes etc. in the definition phase. Fruit and vegetables? Should naturally still have priority. Baking protein turns your cheat meal into fitness food.
Baking protein reduces the carbohydrate proportion of classic recipes and is therefore also suitable for low-carb phases.
The correct intake of baking protein
Baking protein can replace 30-50% of the flour in standard recipes. Simply reduce the flour in the recipe by the appropriate amount and replace it with the same amount of baking protein, then follow the recipe as normal.
Baking protein is not suitable for drinking and must therefore not be used for protein shakes. Anyone who likes to drink shakes should go directly to their favorite protein shake.
Who should use baking protein?
Baking protein is suitable both in the muscle building and definition phase, and also for everyday baking. In other words it is suitable for anyone who wants to increase their daily intake of protein or make their recipes more fitness-friendly.
Even better if the cake or pizza are not only delicious but also have sporty nutritional values.
Possible side effects of baking protein
Baking protein lets you easily increase your daily protein intake. Because foodstuffs with baking protein are not generally associated with protein intake you may not notice how much protein you are actually consuming.
The main ingredient of the baking protein is milk, which means that it contains lactose.
From a daily protein intake of more than 1.5 g of protein per kg of body weight you should drink at least 2-3 liters of water per day to support proper functioning of your kidneys. Anyone with kidney problems should talk to their doctor before increasing their intake of protein.
Buying baking protein online
Anyone who wants to buy baking protein online should focus on the ingredients list and the heat stability of the proteins. Milk protein, which is naturally composed of whey protein and casein, is perfect.
The addition of a raising agent is also an indication that the respective protein is suitable for baking. The raising agent that is added should be free of phosphates and have as mild a flavor as possible.
Frequently Asked Questions
Because Baking Protein is specially designed for baking. It's a heat-stable milk protein that doesn't affect the flavor of your favorite recipe, even at high temperatures. Milk protein is naturally composed of whey and casein. This combination, plus the cream of tartar baking powder, supports good dough consistency.
Thanks to the perfect proportion of casein. To discover the perfect proportion, our internal and external expert team of nutritionists and food technologists tried out various raw materials and carried out a lot of tests to find the perfect protein.
For those in a hurry, we've developed practical and super easy to use baking mixes. With our brownie or pancake baking mixes, you can create a delicious cake or even a whole breakfast with almost zero effort. Best of all, our ready mixes have much more protein and fewer carbs than standard baking mixes. They taste delicious, and you don't have to keep an eye on nutritional charts!
Since protein has different qualities than standard flour, the dough will be a little firmer. Cream of tartar baking powder loosens the dough up a little. It also contains no phosphates and is milder in flavor than similar products. Still, if you feel that the dough is too firm, you can always add 10-20% more liquid. We recommend replacing 30-50% of the flour with our Baking Protein.
We don't think too highly of carb-bashing and crash diets. But we do think it's good to eat smart. Unfortunately, the nutritional values of standard wheat flour products are often not fitness-friendly. By replacing some of the flour with our Baking Protein you can replace carbs (and therefore some of the overall energy value) with protein. Increased protein intake is particularly useful in the muscle building or definition phase of workout plans.
Our Baking Protein is very versatile and suitable for both sweet and savory recipes. But because protein has different baking properties than flour, it's important to follow most details of the original recipe. This way, your favorite recipe will have better nutritional values without any flavor enhancers or artificial flavors.
