RAW Nutrition Cream of Rice - Honey Nut Cereal, 800g (25 Serves)

RAW Nutrition Cream of Rice - Double Fudge Brownie is a flavoured carbohydrate powder from Raw Nutrition, built for lifters who need fast-digesting fuel around training sessions. Each 887.5g tub delivers 25 serves, and every 35.5g scoop supplies 26g of carbohydrate at 120 calories, essentially fat-free at 0.5g. Sold in NZ Supps' Health & Wellness range at $58.95, it mixes straight into water with no cooking or stovetop needed. It's designed to slot in before training sessions or immediately afterward, when digestion speed matters more than a complicated ingredient list.

How Raw Nutrition Health & Wellness works

Cream of rice has long been a staple among strength athletes because rice-derived starch digests quickly relative to many other carbohydrate sources. Once consumed, that starch breaks down into glucose that enters the bloodstream and gets shuttled into muscle and liver glycogen, the fuel reserve your body draws on during resistance training and sustained effort. Because the powder form skips the cooking step of stovetop cream of rice, RAW Nutrition Cream of Rice reaches your gut ready to digest, without the extra prep time or thickened texture of a cooked bowl.

Keeping fat and fibre low, as this formula does at 0.5g fat and 1g fibre per serve, matters for timing too. Fat and fibre both slow gastric emptying, meaning food sits in the stomach longer before its nutrients become available. A carbohydrate source built to move through the gut quickly is more likely to convert into usable energy in the window you're actually training in, rather than arriving late.

Why choose RAW Nutrition Cream of Rice

RAW Nutrition Cream of Rice - Double Fudge Brownie sits in a straightforward corner of the carbohydrate category: a single-purpose fuel source with a dessert-style flavour rather than a blend loaded with extras. A few numbers from the nutrition panel are worth knowing before you buy:

• 120 calories per 35.5g serve, useful for dialling in a specific carbohydrate target without guesswork.
• 120mg sodium per serve, relevant on longer or hotter training days when fluid and electrolyte losses add up.
• 3g protein per serve sitting alongside the 26g carbohydrate, a small addition if you're pairing it with a protein shake rather than using it alone.

At 25 serves per 887.5g tub, RAW Nutrition Cream of Rice is set up as a repeatable training-day staple rather than a one-off pre-race product.

Getting the most from it

Training-day timing is where RAW Nutrition Cream of Rice - Double Fudge Brownie earns its place. Many lifters mix a serve in the 60 to 90 minutes before a session, giving the carbohydrate time to digest ahead of heavy sets, or use it right after training alongside a protein source to start refuelling. Because the powder dissolves in plain water, it also works as a between-meal top-up on higher-volume training days when solid food isn't practical.

If you're already running a creatine or pre-workout routine, Cream of Rice slots in as the carbohydrate side of that stack rather than replacing it. Browse the wider range at NZ Supps to build out a training-week stack that fits your goals.
