Ratings & Reviews
These are amazing! Don't get me wrong, they are not "cake", but for a protein snack, so good. I've gotten into the bad habit of wanting something sweet after my meals and these fit that need and squash the craving! Three cakes is a good snack but for a treat after meals, all I need is one of these little cakes.
Nothing about this is cake like. They are chewy with an intense artificial sweetness. I love ON products, but this is not a winner.
Overall very satisfied with this product. Tasted like an actual red velvet cake. So I was surprised.
Expectation vs. reality: Downright false advertising. The photo makes these look cakey and "deliciously whipped." After opening the package, it was clear that the "photo" on the box was a rendering that took some artistic liberties. The "cake bites" are half as thick as advertised, about the size of a thin mint, are mostly icing with a bit of your typical chewy protein bar texture inside. Not the least bit "deliciously whipped." Do not buy these unless you just want your typical protein bar in a circle instead of a rectangle.
Not a cake texture at all.
I really like these. Because theres 3 in a pack, it's easy to grab 1 before a workout and finish the other 2 after. I also find they're soft arms chewy which is a welcome change from my protein bars. The taste is pretty good too, it's not too strong or overpowering. I've shared them as a snack with friends who usually hate my protein bars.
Flavor had a nice whipped taste to it. Was taken aback by the photo showing a purple inside but was definitely brown on this package.
The product itself gets a 7 from me. It's more of a meal replacement bar than a protein bar. I prefer more protein and less carbs. This product as a whole seems like an excuse for ON to sell you a replacement for an older product at a higher price. I preferred their protein bars that are no longer carried in the US. The blueberry cheesecake favor gets a solid 10 for flavor with me. What I liked about them the most is that the consistency is different from the old bars. The other flavor I tried was the chocolate covered cherry. It gets about a 7. Very average in taste and nothing new really. Same consistency as teh old bars that I didn't mind, but did detract from the overall taste a bit. I won't be ordering these again. There are better options that are cheaper.
The blueberry Cheesecake in the best one. Red Velvet has not strong flavor and to be honest I did not understand, which taste it has. Taste of the chocolate mint is like "After Eight" by Nestle, It has strong flavor, interesting taste, it is really good, but I didn`t like combination of flavors, not for me.
I loved this flavor. The texture isn't quite a cake, it's a bit more chewy/nougat-like than that, but they nailed the flavor for sure. A very slight artificial aftertaste but nothing too offensive.
I've had these before and they tasted pretty okay. Nutrition content is good as well. I received a box recently as part of a promotion, (buy 5 lbs Optimum Protein get Free box of cake bites). Something was definitely wrong with the ones I received, maybe a bad batch. They were a gold/brown color on the inside, didn't taste very good, and caused terrible gas and stomach issues. Hopefully they haven't changed there ingredients, and it was just a bad batch, but nevertheless, I had to throw them out.
Very tasty and not too sweet
I liked the soft-chewy consistency of the cake bites. The flavor is not that great but it's also not that bad. What I really liked is how it made me feel before the workout, it wasn't the feeling of a full stomach, it just made me feel like my stomach had something to work with while I was training.
