Protein shake recipes are all the rave on Pinterest these days.
From recipes for making chocolate peanut butter, banana split or lemon strawberry you’ll discover drinking a protein shake doesn’t have to be boring.
When I discovered the Birthday Cake Shake Recipes I decided they needed a post all to themselves.
I mean, who doesn’t love Birthday Cake, or how about just cake batter?
Before You Buy A Premade Birthday Cake Protein Mix
There are premade Birthday Cake protein powders on the market but only a few I would recommend.
It’s just not smart to spend your hard-earned money on junk products that can potentially damage your health.
Before you purchase protein (any flavor) make sure it is free of:
- Surculose/Splenda, Aspartame/NutraSweet
- Food coloring
- Dyes
- Toxins
- GMO’s
Note: Some products may not be certified organic but when you dig deeper you can find out how they source their ingredients.
Here are the best cake batter powders I recommend:
Isagenix Birthday Day Cake Shake -full meal replacement – 240 calories (get it here)
Kiss Keto Birthday Day Cake Shake– keto supplement – 70 calories (get it here)
Organic Cupcake Batter Protein Shake – supplement – 110 calories (get it here)
My favorite protein to use in my recipes is the Isagenix IsaPro Whey Protein Powder or Isalean Meal Replacement Shakes.
However, you can use the brand of protein powder you like best.
I’ve seen several recipes using instant pudding but since instant pudding usually contains Splenda or NutraSweet I didn’t include them in this post.
Let me know which recipe you like the best!

Meal Replacement Shakes
Even though I enjoy mixing up different shake recipes there really isn’t anything easier than scooping out a healthy protein mix that already has the perfect taste.
Especially, from a trusted brand that is chock-full of nutrition and none of the bad stuff.
The best tasting shakes I’ve found are the Isagenix Isalean shakes.
They come in a variety of flavors and have a wide selection of seasonal flavors throughout the year.
