Vitawerx Protein Chocolate Coated - Macadamia, 60g

Vitawerx Protein Chocolate Coated Almond is a 60g single-serve snack from Vitawerx built around whey protein isolate and activated almonds, sitting in NZ Supps' protein range for anyone who wants a chocolate hit without derailing a macro target. Each bag delivers 16.1g of protein and 313 calories per serve, making it a solid between-meals snack or a post-training top-up instead of reaching for a standard chocolate bar. It's gluten free and formulated to fit a keto or low-carb approach.

How Vitawerx Protein works

The protein backbone of Vitawerx Protein Chocolate Coated Almond is whey protein isolate, a fast-digesting, high-purity form of whey with most of the lactose and fat filtered out during processing. Whey isolate supplies a full spectrum of essential amino acids, including the branched-chain aminos that support muscle protein synthesis after training, which is why it's a staple in recovery-focused snacks rather than just shakes.

The activated almonds sit alongside that protein rather than diluting it. Almonds naturally carry unsaturated fat, and in this bag the fat total comes to 20.9g per serve, with 8.3g of that saturated. Fat slows gastric emptying, which is part of why a chocolate-coated almond snack tends to feel more satisfying than a low-fat protein bar of the same size. The cocoa butter and cocoa in the coating add flavour without adding a meaningful carbohydrate load, keeping the whole 60g bag to 5.1g of carbohydrate.

Why choose Vitawerx Protein Chocolate Coated

Beyond the headline protein number, a few details in the nutrition panel and ingredient list explain why Vitawerx Protein Chocolate Coated Almond holds up against other chocolate-coated protein snacks on the market.

• Sweetened with Birch Natural Sweetener (967) instead of table sugar, which is how the bag lands at 4.6g of sugar per 60g serve.
• Includes a digestive enzyme from Zingiberaceae (ginger) in the ingredient list, alongside the standard emulsifiers (322, 476) used to hold the chocolate coating together.
• Sodium sits at 82mg per serve, low enough that it won't eat into a daily sodium target the way some savoury protein snacks do.

Vitawerx Protein Chocolate Coated Almond also comes packaged as a true single serve, one bag equals one serving, so there's no guessing at portions or splitting a bar to hit a number.

Getting the most from it

Because the protein in Vitawerx Protein Chocolate Coated Almond comes from a fast-digesting isolate, it works well in the one to two hours after training, alongside or instead of a shake, when the body is primed to use amino acids for repair. It's just as useful earlier in the day as an afternoon snack that keeps protein intake moving without adding much carbohydrate. If you're building out a broader supplement routine, browse the rest of the protein range for shakes and blends to cover the rest of your daily target, or check amino and BCAA options for training-day support. Training earlier in the day pairs naturally with a pre-workout pick if you need the extra drive to get the session started before reaching for Vitawerx Protein Chocolate Coated Almond afterwards.
