ON: Have Your Cake and Protein Too

Optimum Nutrition Introduces Cake Bites

Indulgent snack cakes in three delicious flavors deliver 20 grams of protein in a less-than-250-calorie treat

Even the most dedicated fitness devotees and athletes have cravings and occasionally want to indulge. Performance nutrition leader, Optimum Nutrition  has delivered a solution for those who are determined to maintain their diet and fitness routine, but looking to satisfy a sweet tooth – ON Cake Bites. The delicious, frosted, whipped protein snack cakes come in three flavors – Birthday Cake, Red Velvet and Chocolate Dipped Cherry.

Each serving of ON Cake Bites – which consists of three snack cakes in a pack – contains 20 grams of protein from a blend of milk protein and whey protein isolate and is 250 calories or less.

"When you're on a fitness program – whether training, working out or playing competitive sports – you have moments when you really want something sweet and satisfying," said Steve Cook, IFBB professional physique competitor and Team ON athlete. "You don't want to cave and grab a pastry or candy bar. Cake Bites are the perfect solution. The whipped protein is a different texture and flavor than a protein bar and the cakes are bite sized. Even the packaging is more like a dessert."

ON Cake Bites are available at sports nutrition retailers and online. For more information on Cake Bites and other ON products, please visit www.optimumnutrition.com.
