💪 Protein Creami Rule Book

Protein ice cream only. Same system every time. Macros are for the whole pint.

The Golden Rules

  1. Use Mootopia 2%. It's the base for everything. The fat is what makes it taste like real ice cream.
  2. Mix it like a protein shake. Shaker bottle or mini blender, whatever you normally use. Shake until smooth, then let it sit 5 min so the foam settles before pouring.
  3. Freeze 24 hours. Full 24, lid on, sitting flat and level.
  4. Never go past the MAX FILL line.
  5. Spin on Lite Ice Cream. Protein pints almost always come out powdery the first time. That's normal. Add 1 tbsp milk and hit Re-spin.
  6. Mix-ins go in after the spin. Dig a well down the middle, drop them in, run Mix-In.
  7. Barely any xanthan. Protein powder already has its own gums, so just a tiny pinch (about 1/16 tsp). Too much turns it slimy.
  8. Imitation vanilla goes in every pint. ½ tsp, even the chocolate ones. It makes everything taste sweeter without adding sugar.

Macros are based on Mootopia labels and RYSE Loaded whey (about 140 cal, 25g protein per scoop). If your protein powder is different, swap in the numbers from its label.

About the Fat-Free Milk

It works, but 2% is better. With no fat, it's harder to get that real ice cream texture, and it comes out icier. If you're using it up, swap it in 1:1 in any pint and plan on a Re-spin. It knocks each pint down by about 60 cal and 7g fat.

Quick Fixes

Powdery

Normal on the first spin. 1 tbsp milk, Re-spin.

Icy

Probably fat-free milk or froze too short. Use 2%, freeze a full 24.

Gummy / slimy

Too much xanthan. Just a tiny pinch with protein powder.

Hump in the middle

Froze unlevel. Shave the top flat with a spoon before spinning.

Leftovers

Smooth the top flat, refreeze, then just Re-spin next time.
