PEScience Select Protein Cookies & Cream Returns!

At long last, one of the great original flavors of PEScience Select Protein is back in stock – Cookies & Cream! Old is new again, as this is one of the original three flavors that was released in 2014, but went out of stock at nearly all stores for quite a while as the protein flavoring experts powered to bring it back.

PEScience Select Protein Cookies & Cream

PEScience Select Protein Cookies & Cream is back!

Select Protein comes in several gourmet flavors, some of the most recent ones being Cake Pop, Chocolate Mint Cookie, and the limited edition Peppermint Bark, while there are several standards like Chocolate Frosted Cupcake, Snickerdoodle, and Chocolate Mint Cookie.

PEScience was one of the original brands to combine a full milk protein (that has both casein and whey) with additional whey protein to create a delicious and thick sustained-release protein powder. It works incredibly well, and the brand’s ability to flavor this blend is uncanny. They even release third party lab tests!

The re-release of Select Protein Cookies & Cream

Cookies & Cream was an original flavor, and it absolutely blew us away with its similarity to cookies and cream ice cream. It came out in a time when its competition was lazy (at best), generally just combining chocolate and vanilla and calling it a day. There were so many bad cookies and cream flavors… and then there was PEScience. The day we tried it, we knew there was something big.

Time sure has passed! Our written PEScience Select Protein review still stands, there’s just different flavors out now.

Cookies & Cream Select Protein Nutrition Facts

PEScience suggests mixing one scoop with about 8 ounces of cold water. It can be taken any time of the day, but with a sustained-release profile, feel free to use it when you know you’re not going to have any protein for a while (such as before bed, as a dessert, or in between meals).

Here’s what one scoop (33.5 grams) of Cookies & Cream Select Protein brings:

Select Protein’s Ingredients

You can read the details in our original PEScience Select Protein article, but here’s an overview of the ingredients:

  • Select Protein Blend (milk protein isolate [comprised of 80% casein and 20% whey], whey protein concentrate 80%, leucine peptides)

    This is where the magic of Select Protein is at. We have a blend of proteins that yield roughly 50% casein and 50% whey, which brings both slow and fast release proteins. The milk protein isolate is highly refined, so you’ll be low on lactose, unwanted bacteria, fat, and other sugars,[1,2] although some lactose will be here as this is a dairy protein with whey concentrate afterward.

    The casein in the milk protein provides the rich and thick texture, while the whey protein concentrate 80% (meaning it’s 80% protein by weight) smooths it out.

    Finally, leucine peptides are added, since one of the main complaints about casein proteins compared to whey is that they’re a dash lower in leucine. Problem solved!

    Select Protein’s Cookies & Cream stunned us the first time, and we hope it stuns you as well. One thing that we must always discuss is that PEScience discloses lab tests on their proteins in a program called MySelect, which is something not everyone discusses.

    This brand quietly crushes it. Their recent flavor releases of Strawberry Kiwi pre workout flavors were downright incredible – especially for Prolific. While their new releases span across multiple product lines over time, we’re always extra excited when it’s a flavor for the good ol’ original dairy-based Select Protein, because this blend is tops.
