Why PEScience Select Works So Well in These Blondies

Select Protein bakes like a dream thanks to its whey + casein blend. That means:

  • Stable, tender texture (never dry or spongy)
  • Better moisture retention
  • Rich flavor that enhances any dessert recipe
  • 13.5g of complete protein per bar

You can use Cake Pop Select for a sweeter bakery-style flavor or sub Gourmet Vanilla for a classic red velvet base.
