TrueFruit Flavouring

Natural Ingredients

NZProtein's TrueFruit Flavouring is a way to flavour your unflavoured protein powder by using all natural freeze-dried fruit powders that are combined with stevia.

Freeze-dried fruit powders retain more nutrients, colour, and natural flavour than regular fruit powders. This is because the fruit is dried at low temperatures without heat, preserving its original properties.

It's a clean, simple solution. Keep your ingredients minimal - and in your control.

Simply add 5-10g (1-2 heaped scoops) to your protein shake to give a natural flavour. Can also go with collagen, BCAAs, EAAs, etc.

Why Use TrueFruit?

• Real freeze-dried fruit — no concentrates, no heat-treated fruit, no “flavourings”
• Lightly sweetened with stevia — no sugar, no sucralose, no aftertaste
• Pairs perfectly with unflavoured whey, plant protein, collagen and other supplements, or yoghurt
• Mix and match to your desired intensity
• No artificial colours, flavours, or preservatives
• Only 5–10g needed per shake (even less in collagen)
• Great for baking, smoothies, yoghurt bowls, oats, and more

This isn’t a "flavouring" in the synthetic sense — it’s actual fruit, carefully freeze-dried to preserve taste, colour, and nutrients.

Freeze-Dried NZ

Most commercial fruit powders are heat-dried, which darkens the colour, dulls the flavour, and destroys some of the natural vitamins and antioxidants.

Freeze-drying, on the other hand, removes moisture without using heat. This preserves the bright flavour, vibrant colour, and delicate aromatic compounds of the original fruit — giving you a true-to-nature taste experience that shines through in your shake.

The result? A clean, fruity flavour that actually tastes like the real thing — because it is.

Unflavoured Protein Powder NZ

TrueFruit was developed for use with unflavoured protein powders — especially whey and plant-based proteins.

Many people prefer unflavoured protein because it’s versatile and free of unnecessary additives, but the taste can be plain or bland on its own. That’s where TrueFruit comes in.

Recommended pairings:

• Whey and whey isolate
• Plant proteins including pea, faba, and rice protein
• Greek yoghurt
• Rolled oats / overnight oats
• Smoothies or smoothie bowls
• Baking (muffins, protein balls, bars)

You can even add it to the unflavoured supplement powders like BCAAs, EAAs, and collagen for the same effect!

Directions

Using TrueFruit is simple and adjustable to your taste.

Add 5–10g of TrueFruit to one serve of unflavoured protein powder in a shaker or blender. Mix with water or milk, shake well, and enjoy.

• For a mild fruit note: use 5g
• For a stronger flavour hit: use 10g

Adjust to suit — some fruits are naturally more potent than others and some protein powders require more flavour than others. For example pea will need more TrueFruit flavour powder than whey.

If adding it to BCAAs, EAAs, or collagen - even less may be required! It really depends on your desired taste.
