Why PIILK

Protein from baker’s yeast.
Not dairy.
PIILK’s protein is made from baker’s yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). It’s gluten-free and dairy-free, with all 9 essential amino acids in one protein.
PIILK sounds like “pilk.” Rhymes with milk.
What yeast protein actually is ↗“…its use as the sole protein source in a ready-to-drink format with this level of simplicity is still uncommon.”
Read the article ↗PIILK is made with yeast protein and formulated without the nine major U.S. food allergens. If you have food allergies or sensitivities, please check the carton label before drinking.

Seriously, that’s it.

Made without
- No dairy or lactose
- No whey
- No emulsifiers
- No preservatives

At PIILK, we keep our ingredient list simple, with a clear purpose for every ingredient.
Chocolate has 7 ingredients and Café Latte has 8. We use a small amount of fermentation-derived gellan gum as our only stabilizer to help reduce settling and keep ingredients evenly mixed.

When to drink it
Caffeine-free. After a workout, mid-afternoon, or whenever you want protein without the shaker.
“The texture is smooth, the chocolate flavor is good… It actually feels easy to finish, which is rare for a protein shake.”
M.K.
“Actually tastes like chocolate, not like a powdered mix. Really pleasant.”
Less to drink

We started with the protein itself.
Our team spent five years developing the protein at the heart of PIILK. We built our shakes around it: 30g of complete protein in just 8.5 fl oz., with seven ingredients in Chocolate and eight in Café Latte.
I’m lactose intolerant myself. If you’re looking for a shake without milk or whey, I hope PIILK gives you an option you’ll enjoy.
Read it. Try it. Decide.
30g protein in 8.5 fl oz, with a short ingredient list you can read in seconds.
Questions
Why does PIILK Chocolate have 210 calories?
Protein shakes can have different calorie counts even when they have the same amount of protein. The difference comes from the rest of the recipe, like carbs and fat. Each carton of PIILK Chocolate has 30g of protein, 13g of carbs and 4g of fat. Its 210 calories reflect the whole recipe. PIILK puts 30g of complete protein, seven ingredients and a compact 8.5 fl oz carton together, made without milk or whey.
How does it taste?
Smooth. In our customers’ words: “It’s smooth and silky.” “Smoother than I expected for dairy-free.”
Why no emulsifiers?
We don’t add one. A very small amount of gellan gum helps keep the protein from settling. It’s a big reason the label stays at seven ingredients in Chocolate and eight in Café Latte. Forbes covered the story: about five years of R&D, beginning with the protein itself.
Is there anything I should know about yeast?
Contains yeast protein. If you have a yeast sensitivity, check with your doctor before drinking.
Is PIILK dairy-free?
Yes. PIILK is dairy-free, lactose-free, and made without milk or whey protein.
What comes in each order?
The Monthly routine is 18 shakes delivered every month. One-time orders are 9 or 18 shakes.
How do I cancel?
Log in → My subscription → Cancel. No calls, no emails. You can also skip a month or pause there.
What if it’s not for me?
Your first Monthly routine box comes with a 30-day money‑back promise. No return needed. One per household.
What people keep
coming back for.
Tastes like a treat, not a supplement.
I've tried every ready-to-drink protein out there. This is the first one I actually look forward to. The chocolate is rich without being heavy.
Sarah M.
High protein and actually good flavor.
Love the chocolate taste. It doesn't have that fake sweetness that most protein drinks have.
David L.
The texture surprises me. It is really easy to drink.
No chalky finish, no heaviness. I finish the whole bottle every single time without forcing it.
Jason K.
Goes down easy, smooth all the way.
Most protein shakes feel like work to get through. This one I actually drink fast because it tastes that good.
Amanda T.
Having complete protein without whey is huge.
I've been looking for something without pea, casein, or whey. This is the first one that actually delivers 30g without any of them.
Michael B.
I can't drink dairy — this was a game changer.
No bloating, no issues. Just 30g of clean protein that my stomach is actually okay with.
Rachel P.
30g in such a small bottle!!
I love that I can just grab one from the fridge on the way out. No shaker, no measuring, no mess.
Olivia J.
Packs serious protein value for a small shake.
I used to carry around a giant shaker. This fits in my bag and still gives me 30g. It's a no-brainer.
