Whether you're drizzling a sugar-free syrup over your porridge, stirring a natural nut butter into a smoothie, or reaching for a high-protein spread after training, the range covers every format and flavour preference. Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass1, so building it into everyday meals — not just shakes — makes a real difference to your overall intake.
The selection spans everything from all-natural nut butters made with nothing but the nut itself, to powdered peanut butter with a high-protein profile, to zero-sugar syrups and flavour drops that transform any meal in seconds.

Who Protein Sauces, Syrups & Spreads Are For
These products are built for anyone who wants to make their food work harder. If you're tracking macros, training regularly, or simply trying to eat more protein without relying solely on shakes and supplements, this range gives you the flexibility to hit your numbers through meals you actually enjoy. Natural nut butters and high-protein spreads slot easily into breakfast, snacks, and post-workout meals alike.
They're just as relevant for people who aren't deep into fitness but want to make smarter swaps day to day. Sugar-free syrups and flavour drops let you add variety to your meals without extra sugar, while all-natural options — like almond butter, cashew butter, and peanut butter — are a clean source of protein and healthy fats with no unnecessary additives.
When to Use Protein Sauces, Syrups & Spreads
Nut butters and protein spreads work at any point in the day. Stir them into porridge or yoghurt at breakfast, spread them on rice cakes as a mid-morning snack, or blend them into a post-workout shake for added depth and nutrition. They're versatile enough to use as a cooking ingredient too — in sauces, marinades, or baked goods — making it easy to build protein into meals without it feeling like a supplement routine.
Sugar-free syrups and flavour drops are best used as an on-the-spot flavour upgrade. A few drops into coffee, protein shakes, yoghurt, or overnight oats adds sweetness without the sugar hit. They're particularly useful if you're managing your intake on an energy-restricted plan and want to keep meals interesting without adding unnecessary calories.
Protein Sauces, Syrups & Spreads Benefits
Real Protein From Real Ingredients
Nut butters and protein spreads deliver protein that comes from whole-food sources — nuts, seeds, and whey — rather than synthetic additives. Protein contributes to the maintenance of muscle mass1, making these a practical way to round out your daily intake through food rather than supplements alone.
No Compromise on Flavour
Sugar-free syrups and flavour drops prove that cutting back on sugar doesn't mean cutting back on taste. With a wide range of flavours — from caramel and vanilla to more indulgent options — they make it easy to enjoy food that fits your targets without feeling restrictive or bland.
Clean Ingredient Lists
The all-natural nut butters in this range are made without palm oil, added sugar, or artificial flavourings. What you get is exactly what's on the label — nuts, and nothing else. That transparency matters when you're paying attention to what goes into your body every day.
Flexible Across Every Meal
Unlike single-use supplements, protein spreads, syrups, and sauces are genuine kitchen staples. They work across breakfast, snacks, cooking, and shakes — giving you more opportunities throughout the day to hit your protein goals without relying on a single format.

FAQs
What are protein spreads?
Protein spreads are food products — typically nut butters or flavoured spreads — with a naturally higher protein content than standard alternatives. They're made from ingredients like peanuts, almonds, or cashews, which are naturally rich in protein and healthy fats. Unlike standard sandwich spreads, protein spreads are formulated with nutrition in mind, making them a convenient way to add protein to meals and snacks throughout the day.
Are sugar-free syrups actually sugar free?
Sugar-free syrups contain no added sugar and use alternative sweeteners to deliver sweetness without the caloric load of traditional syrups. They're designed to replicate the flavour of classic syrups — caramel, vanilla, toffee, and more — without the sugar content, making them a popular choice for anyone managing their intake on a calorie-conscious plan. Always check the label for the full ingredient breakdown.
What's the difference between regular peanut butter and powdered peanut butter?
Regular peanut butter is made from ground roasted peanuts and retains its natural fat content, giving it a rich, creamy texture. Powdered peanut butter has most of the fat removed during processing, resulting in a product that's higher in protein and lower in calories per serving. It needs to be mixed with water before use, making it ideal for blending into shakes or stirring into recipes where a lower-fat option works better.
Which nut butter should I choose?
All-Natural Peanut Butter is a great all-rounder — it's delicious, made with simple ingredients, and a solid source of protein. If you're after a higher protein option in a lighter format, Powdered Peanut Butter is worth considering given its high-protein, high-fibre profile. For something a little different, Choc Nut Butter delivers a more indulgent flavour while still containing 64% nuts and serving as a source of protein — it's a particularly popular pick for those who want a treat that still fits their goals.
Can I use flavour drops and syrups in cooking?
Flavour drops and sugar-free syrups are versatile enough to use beyond drinks. They work well stirred into yoghurt, mixed into batter for protein pancakes, drizzled over porridge, or used to flavour overnight oats. Because they're concentrated, a small amount goes a long way — making them an efficient way to add variety to everyday meals without significantly affecting the nutritional profile of what you're making.
How much protein do natural nut butters contain?
Natural nut butter protein content varies by type, but peanut butter typically contains around 25g of protein per 100g, making it one of the more protein-dense options in this category. Almond and cashew butters tend to be slightly lower. Powdered peanut butter sits at the higher end of the range due to the removal of fat during processing. Check the individual product pages for exact figures per serving.
Are the nut butters in this range suitable for people following a plant-based diet?
All-natural nut butters — including the peanut, almond, and cashew varieties — are plant-based by nature, containing nothing but the nut itself. Always check individual product labels to confirm suitability, as formulations can vary. The range is clearly labelled, so it's straightforward to identify which products align with a plant-based approach.
Who develops the products in this range?
Every product in the Protein Sauces, Syrups and Spreads range is developed by Myprotein's expert nutritionists. The team works to create formulas that balance great taste with real nutritional value — whether that's maximising the protein content of a nut butter, getting the flavour of a sugar-free syrup right, or keeping ingredient lists as clean as possible.
How do natural nut butters fit into a high-protein diet in Ireland?
Natural nut butter is a practical way to increase protein intake through everyday food rather than supplements. For anyone in Ireland looking for high-protein spreads that double as genuine kitchen staples, options like peanut butter and almond butter are easy to incorporate into breakfast, snacks, and meals. Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass1, so building it into more of your meals through sources like nut butters is a straightforward strategy for hitting daily targets.
Can protein sauces and spreads be used as part of a calorie-managed plan?
Many products in this range are well-suited to calorie-managed eating. Sugar-free syrups and flavour drops add sweetness and variety with minimal caloric impact, while powdered peanut butter offers a lower-calorie alternative to traditional nut butter without sacrificing protein content. Natural nut butters are more calorie-dense by nature, so portion awareness is worth building in — but they remain a nutrient-dense, whole-food option within a balanced approach.
