For the dessert lover in the gym: Barista Whey Nougat is a protein coffee that tastes like mocha with a soft nougat finish. Real instant coffee, highly defatted cocoa powder and whey protein come together in a 908-gram tub, good for about 30 glasses. This is the sweetest of the three Barista flavors, made for those who prefer their protein moment to feel like a dessert rather than a chore. And despite what the name might suggest, there are no hazelnuts involved.
Nougat immediately brings hazelnuts to mind, but there are no nuts on the ingredients list of this variant. The character comes from a combination of flavoring and cocoa powder, layered over a base of coffee and creamy whey protein. The allergen list only mentions milk and lactose. If you have a serious nut allergy, check the current label on the tub as always. What you should also know: with 3.55 grams of sugar per serving, this is the sweetest flavor in the range, and all the carbohydrates in this variant are sugars. Together with the sweetener sucralose, that delivers a pronounced dessert profile at 116 kcal per glass. Compared to a nougat bar, that remains modest. Those who are strict about sugar should look at Classic within the range; those who want a dessert should stick with this.
With 6 percent instant coffee, Nougat has the mildest coffee content of the three flavors. The cocoa takes over some of the space, making the whole thing lean more towards mocha than a strong espresso. If you find regular coffee too bitter too quickly, this is the most accessible entry point in the range. Shaken cold with milk, it becomes almost a mocha milkshake, and in the blender with a few ice cubes you can make a thick iced coffee out of it in the summer. Warm preparation is also possible, as long as the water or milk is no hotter than about sixty degrees. Whey protein cannot withstand boiling temperatures; it will clump up like milk that curdles in the pan. By the way, the cocoa aroma greets you as soon as you open the tub; you mainly taste the coffee in the aftertaste.
Under the dessert layer, this is still simply a protein product. The powder consists of 86 percent ultra-filtered whey protein concentrate and a 30-gram serving delivers 20.55 grams of protein. Proteins contribute to an increase in muscle mass and to the maintenance of muscle mass. In addition, proteins contribute to the maintenance of normal bones. To make it concrete: someone who weighs 80 kilos and maintains 1.8 grams of protein per kilo of body weight is at 144 grams per day. One glass of Nougat covers just over a seventh of that, making it one of the easier contributions to your daily total. This means that this protein coffee is almost interchangeable with the other two flavors in terms of nutritional value; the difference lies mainly in the experience. In addition, the recipe contains added lactase. Note: there is simply milk in it, so the product is not suitable for those with a milk allergy.
Many people wonder when such a sweet protein coffee fits best. In practice, Nougat works mainly as an afternoon moment or as a reward after a workout: the moments when you would otherwise reach for a bar or a cappuccino with syrup. Because of the real coffee, every serving also contains caffeine; the exact content is not stated on the label of this flavor, so you'd better not plan your glass right before bedtime. By the way, the powder also works well with oatmeal or through a bowl of low-fat quark, if you like a mocha breakfast. This way, the same tub of protein coffee becomes alternately a drink, dessert, and topping. It finds a permanent place in your routine on its own: many users simply place the tub next to the coffee machine, so that the protein moment and the treat moment automatically find each other.
In short: Barista Whey Nougat is the dessert coffee of the Barista range. Sweeter and softer than Classic and Caramel, but with almost the same protein figures. Those who want to drink coffee with protein without it tasting like the gym are in good hands here. One tub lasts about a month with daily use.
The nougat character comes from flavouring and highly defatted cocoa powder; the allergen list only mentions milk and lactose.
Even the sweetest flavour in the range remains, at its core, a protein shake, with 116 kcal per glass.
With 6% instant coffee, Nougat is the most accessible choice for those who find coffee too bitter.
Sweet enough to replace a dessert, but with a fraction of the sugar found in a mocha milkshake.

No, the ingredient list does not contain nuts. The nougat flavour comes from flavouring and highly defatted cocoa powder. The label only lists milk and lactose as allergens. If you have a severe nut allergy, always check the current label on the packaging to be sure.
Like a smooth mocha with a sweet nougat edge: coffee and cocoa at the same time, distinctly sweeter than Classic. With milk or blended with ice, it almost becomes a dessert. The coffee taste is still present but less prominent than in the other flavours.
Its sweet profile partly comes from actual sugars: 3.55 grams per serving, the highest of the three Barista flavors. For comparison: Caramel is at 3.11 grams and Classic at 0.9 grams. For a dessert-like drink, this remains modest, however.
No. Per 100 grams, the powder consists of 68.83 grams of protein, and one glass provides 116 kcal. A mocha milkshake from an ice cream parlor easily contains double or triple that amount, with a fraction of the protein.
It contains 6% real instant coffee, so each serving contains caffeine. An exact caffeine content is not listed on the label for this flavor; only Classic mentions it. Due to the caffeine, the product is not intended for children, pregnant women, or breastfeeding women.
Nougat is the dessert choice: less coffee (6% vs 8%), more sugar (3.55 vs 0.9 grams), and a cocoa-nougat profile. Classic, on the other hand, is the only one that also contains whey isolate and tastes most like pure coffee. In terms of protein, they are almost identical.
