Chocolate Protein Shake with Islands Chocolate

Chocolate Protein Shake with Islands Chocolate

Rich, natural cocoa meets science-led nutrition in one deliciously creamy shake.

We've teamed up with Islands Chocolate to bring together two brands with a shared belief: quality ingredients, thoughtfully sourced, with nothing unnecessary added.

This Chocolate Protein Shake combines Islands Chocolate's 100% Natural Cocoa Powder with LØUCO Perform, banana and a touch of honey for a rich, satisfying blend that's perfect for breakfast, post-workout or an afternoon pick-me-up.

Crafted from single-estate cocoa grown on Islands Chocolate's farms in St Vincent, their new Natural Cocoa Powder delivers deep chocolate flavour with subtle notes of dried fruit and roasted nuts. Paired with LØUCO Perform's plant protein, fibre, 3g creatine, CoQ10 and more – it's a delicious way to bring more nutrition into your everyday routine.

Ingredients

  • 3 tsp (7g) Islands Chocolate 100% Natural Cocoa Powder

  • 50ml water
  • 1 tbsp (15g) honey

Method

LØUCO Tip

For a thicker, colder shake, use frozen banana and add a handful of ice before blending. Prefer a more intense chocolate flavour? Add an extra teaspoon of Islands Chocolate Natural Cocoa Powder.

Why It Works

  • LØUCO Perform – delivers 21g of organic plant protein, fibre, 3g creatine, 100mg CoQ10 and more per serving, combining key nutrients in one simple blend.
  • Islands Chocolate Natural Cocoa Powder – made from 100% single-estate cocoa grown in St Vincent, with no added sugar, preservatives or additives. Naturally contains cocoa flavanols and polyphenols.
  • Banana – adds natural sweetness, carbohydrates and a creamy texture without the need for artificial thickeners.
  • Real ingredients – a simple combination of cocoa, protein, fruit and milk, bringing together flavour and functional nutrition without unnecessary extras.

Two Brands. One Shared Philosophy.

At LØUCO, we believe women deserve nutrition that's thoughtfully formulated, grounded in science and made with ingredients that have a purpose.

It's a philosophy we share with Islands Chocolate, whose new 100% Natural Cocoa Powder celebrates the authentic flavour of cocoa without alkalising or Dutch processing.

Pure. Powerful. Plant-based. This 100% Cocoa Powder contains naturally occurring flavanoids and antioxidants found in cacao. With a rich aroma and deep chocolate taste, real cocoa flavour in every spoonful. Perfect for drinking, baking and blending into your daily routine.

Together, we've created a chocolate shake that brings the best of both brands into one glass.
