Vegan Protein Bar with Gingerbread Flavour – Low Sugar & High in Protein
The VHEY® Protein Bar Gingerbread combines a warming seasonal flavour with plant-based protein power: a soft gingerbread centre made from pea and hemp protein, coated in crisp dark chocolate. Festive indulgence without the guilt – available as a single bar (50 g), ideal for on-the-go snacking, the office or after training.
Protein bars have become a practical staple for busy lifestyles – especially when there isn't time for a proper balanced meal. The VHEY® Protein Bar uses a combination of pea protein isolate and hemp protein: both sources provide a complete amino acid spectrum from the plant kingdom, making this bar a genuine alternative to conventional products. Those looking for an even more targeted protein intake will find a wide range of protein powders on viterna.at.
What sets the Gingerbread variety apart is its seasonal spiced character. A soft interior with classic gingerbread notes is wrapped in crisp dark chocolate. Sweetened with maltitol and sucralose rather than table sugar, the bar contains just 0.6 g of sugar per serving. Maltitol provides around half the calories of regular sugar at a comparable level of sweetness, without promoting tooth decay. Please note: excessive consumption of maltitol may have a laxative effect; up to two bars per day are generally well tolerated.
As a snack, between meals or as an alternative to a protein shake. 1 bar (50 g) provides 10 g of protein and 188 kcal.
If you have a sensitive stomach, we recommend consuming no more than 2 bars per day, as sugar alcohols may have a laxative effect in larger amounts.

Why pea protein and hemp protein?
Pea protein isolate is one of the most complete plant-based protein sources, containing all essential amino acids. Hemp protein complements the profile with naturally occurring fatty acids and additional dietary fibre. Together, they offer a well-rounded amino acid spectrum – ideal for a plant-based lifestyle.
Why maltitol instead of sugar?
Maltitol is a sugar alcohol with roughly 90% of the sweetness of table sugar, but only around half the calories, and it is non-cariogenic. This keeps the sugar content at just 0.6 g per bar – without compromising on sweetness. Please be aware: in larger quantities, maltitol may have a laxative effect.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, protected from direct sunlight and moisture.
Notes: Suitable for active athletes and people with increased protein requirements. Not intended as a meal replacement.
