In this review, I’ll be tasting Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey protein powder.

I’ll discuss my thoughts on the taste, nutritional information, price, and mixability of the protein supplement. I’ll also discuss what others think about the product and give my opinion on some of the common use cases.

Without further ado, let’s get into the Myprotein salted caramel review!

What is Myprotein Impact Whey Protein Powder?

Myprotein Impact Whey protein powder is a whey protein supplement that helps increase protein intake and helps with muscle growth and recovery. The powder comes in a variety of flavours, including salted caramel (which is the flavour I’ll be tasting in this review).

The protein powder is made with whey protein concentrate (milk), which is a type of protein that is easily digested and absorbed by the body. Whey protein concentrate is a good source of essential amino acids, which are the building blocks of muscle tissue.

Overall, as I mentioned in the Myprotein Impact Whey Protein review, it’s a good protein powder with a solid protein-to-calorie ratio that is fairly priced, mixes well, and has a variety of flavours to choose from.

Taste

So, does salted caramel protein powder by Myprotein taste good?

Read on to find out!

Taste With Water

When mixed with water, the powder has a light caramel taste with a hint of saltiness.

I didn’t find it to be too sweet or too salty, and overall, for my taste, I found it a bit too bland than I would’ve liked.

If I would have to give it a rating from 1 to 10, I would give it a 6.

Taste With Milk

When I tried Myprotein Salted Caramel protein powder with milk, it tasted much better.

The caramel flavour was more pronounced and the saltiness was toned down a bit. It tastes much sweeter when mixed with milk than water.

As a lover of all things sweet, I enjoyed it very much.

I have been using this flavour of Myprotein protein powder since 2017, to make my protein oatmeal, protein ice cream and smoothies, but have never had I tried it with milk.

Now that I have, I’ll definitely be making protein shakes with milk more often.

As far as the rating goes, I would give it a solid 9 out of 10.

Overall, I think the taste is good, but it really depends on what you mix it with.

If you’re looking for a protein powder that tastes good with water, I would recommend trying a different flavour. But if you’re looking for a protein powder that tastes good (and sweet) with milk, then this one is definitely worth trying.

Mixability

Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein mixes well with both water and milk.

I didn’t notice any clumping and the powder dissolved easily.

Here is how it looked when mixed with water.

And here is how it looked when mixed with milk.

You can notice that when mixed with milk it is a lot smoother and creamier.

What Others Say About Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein

I checked out some online reviews (on Amazon) of Myprotein Impact Whey Protein (Salted Caramel) to get a sense of what others thought about the taste, mixability, and price.

Most people seemed to be happy with the product and at the time of writing this review (August 2022), the rating was on average at 4.4 out of 5 stars.

Most people that have tried it say it tastes very good. It is very sweet and goes well in shakes, and smoothies as well as makes a great cappuccino (comment from a chef).

Some mention that it is better to get it directly from Myprotein’s website because it is cheaper. Which I totally agree with, as you can almost always find a Myprotein discount code that will give you a significant discount.

Many customers explain that many other protein powders on the market are chalky and have a bad aftertaste, but they don’t have that problem with Myprotein’s Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein. Many even like how it tastes just with water.

People find it very easy to mix, with no clumping. It mixes well with, water, milk and other ingredients like yoghurt.

Most agree that it tastes best with milk, and some say that it reminds them of a caramel milkshake.

There were a few people that didn’t like the taste of Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein powder. They found it too sweet, or artificial tasting. But this seemed to be the minority.

Another critical review I found was from someone that said that the protein amount per serving was too low in comparison to other protein powders on the market.

However, I think the protein-to-calorie ratio is actually pretty good for the price. And you can easily increase the protein content without adding that much more carbs and fats by just adding an additional scoop or two. So I’m not sure I agree with this criticism.

The last critical review I want to mention is from someone that said their package was open and the powder was spilling out when it arrived.

I think this is a very valid criticism and believe Myprotein should do a better job at packaging their products to prevent this from happening. But it’s not necessarily the fault of the product itself.

How To Use Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein

You can use Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein in a variety of ways.

The most common way are the following:

• Mix it with water or milk and drink it as a shake
• Mix it with yoghurt to make a high-protein yoghurt
• Mix it with oatmeal to make a protein oatmeal
• Add it to smoothies
• Make a protein ice cream by mixing it with frozen fruits and/or berries, milk or water, xanthan gum, and then blending it
• Use it in baking recipes like pancakes, muffins, or cookies
• Add it to coffee to make a protein-packed cappuccino or latte

After making this review, I like to mix it with milk and drink it as a shake for breakfast or after my workout. I also like how it tastes when mixed in oatmeal.

Who Should Buy Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein

I think Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein powder is a great product for a few different types of people.

• First, I think it’s great for people that are looking for a high-quality protein powder that tastes good and likes sweet/caramel flavours.
• Second, I think it’s great for people that are looking for a protein powder that is versatile and can be used in a variety of desserts.
• And last, I think it’s great for people that are looking for a protein powder that is affordable and are not afraid of sacrificing a gram or two of carbs and/or fat for a lower price.

If you are any of those things, then I think you should give Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein powder a try.

Who Shouldn’t Buy Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein

Even though I think Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein powder is a great product, it’s not for everyone.

• First, if you are someone that is looking for a protein powder that is low in calories, then this is not the right product for you. Isolate and hydrolyzed protein powders are usually a better option for people that are looking to save on calories.
• Second, if you are someone that is looking for a protein powder without any artificial sweeteners, then this is not the right product for you. Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein does contain artificial sweeteners.
• Third, it is not for someone that is looking for a vegan or plant-based protein powder. It is made from whey protein, which is a dairy product.
• At last, if you want a protein powder with little to no taste to use when cooking other foods besides desserts, then you should look for a different protein supplement, perhaps Myprotein Unflvaoured Impact Whey Protein. Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein powder does have a very sweet taste, especially when mixed with milk.

Where to Buy Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein Powder

I recommend you buy Myprotein Salted Caramel Impact Whey Protein from the official Myprotein website. It is usually the cheapest place to buy it.
