I bought a big 'ol expensive tub of Protizyme chocolate cake powder last night. I tried some this morning and it is way too sweet. Since I spent $45 on this tub I am going to drink the damn stuff but I need ideas for cutting the sweetness. Any suggestions? I don't drink coffee so I can't go that route. :(

Thanks!

What about mixing it in greek yogurt? Maybe the tart taste of the yogurt will off set the sweet taste of the protein.

Try cutting it with powdered milk.

I use a little cocoa powder, or instant coffee, it doesnt take much for me. PB2 tastes good in chocolate too.

I had that trouble with one flavor, and mixed it with unflavored protein powder. That way, same amount of protein for less intensity.
