Chocolate whey protein as a private label product
The current formula lists whey protein concentrate, cocoa, flavouring and several sweeteners. Private label whey copy should therefore be clear about ingredients, milk as an allergen and nutrition per 100 g and serving. For a 1 kg pack, powder handling, the choice of bag or jar and label area are connected decisions. Taste and sweetness also need to suit the intended audience. We distinguish an existing standard blend from a custom development before calculating volume, packaging and cost for the specific B2B project.
