Online health retailer MuscleFood.com has released a high protein chocolate and hazelnut spread that claims to have ‘less calories than an apple’. The company notes that chocoholics, and endurance sport athletes, should rejoice at the launch of a new chocolate and hazelnut spread without the calories!
MuscleFood.com has become the UK’s first company to sell a spread with less than a quarter of the sugar and half the calories of leading brands. The retailer’s Prutella is ‘100% clean with no added sugars and has been released just as UK Government advisers have told families to slash their sugar intake by half.’
MuscleFood’s offering contains just under a quarter of the sugar of the nation’s leading chocolate and hazelnut spread. It’s positioned as being perfect for those watching their waistlines, with less than half the calories and saturated fat of the market leader.
Prutella is made with hazelnut paste and contains an eighth of a teaspoon of sugar per serving.
The chocolate and hazelnut spread is also reportedly rich in calcium due to the high content of milk proteins.
The spread has already received more than a 100 rave reviews from customers on MuscleFood.com’s website and social media since its launch last week. Popular with a range of athletes, MuscleFood has seen ‘a huge boost in sales to customers following a calorie-controlled diet.’
Darren Beale from MuscleFood.com said “Our health-conscious customers are keen to cut down on their sugar intake but still want to treat themselves once in a while. Because our innovative chocolate and hazelnut spread is both low in sugars and fat, they can indulge themselves and their kids without worrying.”
He added, “Our team spent months researching and testing spreads to get the taste and texture just right. Our spread is also great for dieters who are craving something chocolaty. Now you don’t have to deny your body what it wants, you can treat yourself without having to worry about piling on the pounds.
“We’re expecting Prutella to be popular. Products like our high protein pizzas and cookies have really taken off amongst our customers who feel like they want a treat day without the extra calories.”
Based in Nottingham, UK, MuscleFood.com offers consumers ‘Premium Nutrition for Healthy Living’. The online retailer offers a range of protein-packed food offerings and other nutrition that aim to ‘beat supermarkets on price!’
