But before we get too far into the recipe, I’d like to thank BSN for sponsoring this recipe and blog post. BSN recently partnered with Cold Stone Creamery to launch a line of Cold Stone Creamery Syntha-6 protein powder. There are three flavors—Mint Mint Chocolate Chocolate Chip, Germanchokolatekake, and a Birthday Cake Remix. In this recipe, we’ll be using BSN Syntha-6 Birthday Cake Remix.

If you’re unfamiliar with BSN or Syntha-6 protein powder, you should know it’s quite possibly the best tasting protein powder of all time. Adding Cold Stone Creamery flavors to the mix puts it over the top. You can pick up the Cold Stone Creamery Syntha-6 for this birthday cake protein pastry here.
