As the First Official Cinnabon® Protein Powder Flavor, It Tastes Like a Fresh Cinnabon Cinnamon Roll
CHICAGO, March 1, 2023 — Sweets lovers rejoice! You can now get the flavor of a fan-favorite treat in your protein powder. GHOST®, a lifestyle brand of sports nutrition products, energy drinks, dietary supplements, and apparel, and Cinnabon®, known around the world for its ooey-gooey cinnamon rolls, have baked up a collaboration for the record books. Starting today, GHOST® VEGAN will be available in a “CINNABON®” flavor, which delivers on the quintessential taste everyone loves from their favorite bakery.
The smell of freshly baked cinnamon rolls is intoxicating, and any well-trained nose can sniff out the closest Cinnabon®, whether they’re in the airport or their hometown mall. Now, shoppers can enjoy that beloved cinnamon roll taste in a globally compliant GHOST® VEGAN protein powder. GHOST® VEGAN, the first authentically licensed vegan protein flavor, has 20 grams of protein per serving and is made with a premium, fully disclosed vegan protein blend of pea protein concentrate, organic pumpkin protein, and watermelon seed protein. To authentically incorporate the nostalgic taste of a Cinnabon® cinnamon roll, the protein powder features Cinnabon’s signature Makara® cinnamon. In addition to using the powder in your shake, you can also use it to add a protein boost to any baked good of your choice, like pancakes, muffins, and waffles.
“Every recipe has a secret ingredient that pulls everything together, and this collaboration is centered on authenticity,” said Dan Lourenco, Co-Founder and CEO of GHOST®. “GHOST® is proud to team up with Cinnabon® to create a product that emulates the classic taste of a sweet, cinnamon-spiced cinnamon roll. We are continuing to make sports nutrition approachable by creating protein powders that taste exactly like iconic products we know and love.”
