With less sugar, are the new shakes still sweet? 

Yes – no need to worry! The original and new recipe both contained an artificial sweetener called ‘sucralose’, which is naturally sweeter than real sugar. The new shakes have less skimmed milk powder (which contains sugar), but our food development team have worked tirelessly through recipe trials and customer feedback to ensure they still have their distinct delicious flavours.  

Has the taste and texture changed? 

Our shakes are still deliciously creamy, but you may notice a slight texture difference. This is because we’ve removed the skimmed milk powder, to significantly reduce the sugar content. At exante, we don’t mind a minor texture change to achieve such a big nutritional change of >10g less sugar.
