Review: Supreme Protein (Caramel Nut Chocolate)

Today I had the chance to review one of the original Supreme flavors, Caramel Nut. Here is my full review of it:

Texture: 8


The Caramel Nut flavor is a little bit chewy, but not as bad as some other bars on the market. Regardless, you will likely get to the end of the bar with a tired jaw from eating this thing. While the middle has a few different textures, they seem to blend together to create the sensation of nougat.


Variation of flavors: 9

In terms of the bar itself, the inside mostly meshes together to create one texture. Where it differentiates itself it in the layer of rice krispies on top. On initial bite, your first taste is this great crispy texture. Unfortunately, the rest of the bar seems to mesh textures together, creating only two discernible textures. Nonetheless, the fact that you get the crispiness and then the caramel nut flavor makes this an enjoyable bar with multiple flavor personalities.


Taste9

In terms of a protein bar, it has very good taste. When it initially came out, I would have certainly given it a 10. But with companies continually raising the bar on protein bar taste, the Caramel Nut flavor is unfortunately being passed up. With that being said, it is still a great tasting protein bar. It is the classic combination of peanut and caramel that has been used by countless companies, and perhaps none executes it better than Supreme.


Fullness Factor: 9


Due to the chewy texture of the bar, it does bring with it a good fullness factor. Also, due to the fact that it is so chewy, your jaw will likely be a bit tired by the end of the bar. Whereas you can wolf through a flavor like the Peanut Butter & Jelly, you have to work a little bit to eat the Caramel Nut Chocolate. In addition, the bar is pretty dense, providing a pretty good feeling of fullness.

Overall: 8


The Supreme Protein in Caramel Nut flavor is, overall, a great tasting bar. If I am looking to purchase a protein bar I would have no hesitations picking one of these up. With that being said, it wouldn't usually be my first choice. As I mentioned earlier, it is one of the original flavors and has since been passed up by more exotic flavors and combinations. Regardless, it is still an original staple and one that tastes very good considering the fact that it is a protein bar.
