Canada’s 20 Most-Ordered Protein Snacks of 2025 — Real Sales Data from a Montreal Retailer
Most “best protein snacks” lists you find online are based on affiliate commissions, brand sponsorships, or guesses. This one is real Canadian sales data — 12 months of orders we shipped from our Montreal warehouse to customers in every province. Diana Famintsyna (founder of Top Nutrition & Fitness, July 2016) personally taste-tests every flavour before we stock it. Our customers vote with their wallets. Here are the 20 they reordered most between May 22, 2025 and May 21, 2026.
- Period: May 22, 2025 — May 21, 2026 (full 12 months).
- Metric: Total units sold per SKU — the sum of line-item quantities across all fulfilled orders. POS, online, and B2B combined.
- Filtered to: snack-format products only — bars, cookies, chips, puffs, gummies, candy, brownies, sauces, frozen single-serve treats. We excluded protein powder, creatine, RTD shakes, energy drinks, vitamins, pre-workouts.
- SKU consolidation: where a brand sells the same product as both a single and a 12-pack box, we combined the two SKUs into one rank.
- Why we don’t disclose absolute unit numbers: competitive. Ranks are shown as ordinal (#1 through #20). The full data set lives in our Shopify back-end and is not exported.
- Stock check: every product in this list was active and in stock as of the publish date. We re-audit quarterly.
The Top 20 ranked list
| Rank | Product | Vendor | Format | Macros (per serving) | Price | Why it ranks here |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | Built Protein Bars & Puffs (1 Bar) | Built Bar | 1 bar (or puff) | 17g protein · 130 cal · 1g sugar | $4.35 | The taste-test winner of the last three years — marshmallowy texture nothing else replicates. Banana Cream Pie Puff is a flavour you cannot get anywhere else in Canada. |
| #2 | Simply Scrumptous SWEET Keto Snacks (1 unit) | Simply Scrumptous | 1 unit (varies: 1 muffin, 1 cookie, 1 cinnamon bun, etc.) | 11g protein · 180 cal · 2g sugar | $6.00 | Hand-baked in Vermont, single-serve frozen treats. Sweet Maple Glazed Donuts and Cinnamon Bun dominate reorders. Canadians cannot buy this anywhere else north of the border. |
| #3 | David Gold GF High Protein Bar (1 Bar) | David Protein | 1 bar (28g protein) | 28g protein · 150 cal · 0g sugar | $7.29 | 28 grams of protein in a 150-calorie bar — no other crunchy bar comes close. David Gold (gold wrapper) launched in late 2024 and ranked top-3 within months. |
| #4 | NEW David Protein Bar Bronze (1 bar) | David Protein | 1 bar (Bronze) | 28g protein · 150 cal · 0g sugar | $7.29 | Bronze is the newer 2025 lineup with refined textures — Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Cake-Style flavours. Same 28g-protein macros as Gold. |
| #5 | Barebells Protein Bar (1 bar) | Barebells | 1 bar (55g) | 20g protein · 200 cal · 2g sugar | $4.99 | Swedish bars that taste like candy bars. Caramel Choco Crisp and Hazelnut Nougat are reorder magnets — and limited editions (S'mores, Salty Peanut) sell out in days. |
| #6 | Grenade Carb Killa Protein Bar (1 Bar) | Grenade | 1 bar (60g) | 20g protein · 215 cal · 1g sugar | $3.99 | British brand, candy-bar texture with crunchy nougat layers. White Chocolate Cookie and Caramel Chaos are the perennial top sellers in Canada. |
| #7 | ProBites Protein Balls (1 pack of 2 bites) | ProBites | 1 pack of 2 bites (40g) | 11g protein · 150 cal · 4g sugar | $5.49 | Belgian brand that arrived in Canada in 2024 and exploded — fridge-stored protein truffles that customers describe as 'better than store-bought truffles.' |
| #8 | Warrior Crunch Low-Carb Protein Bar (1 Bar) | Warrior Supplements | 1 bar (64g) | 20g protein · 218 cal · 1g sugar | $4.99 | Best-value premium bar in our catalog — Cookies & Cream and White Chocolate Crisp are the two reorder champions. UK brand, sweetened with maltitol + stevia. |
| #9 | Jell-O Sugar Free Instant Pudding (28g) | Jell-O | 1 packet (28g) | 0g protein · 80 cal · 0g sugar | $2.99 | Customers mix it into Greek yogurt or protein shakes to add flavour without sugar. Pistachio and Banana Cream are the favourites — a sleeper hit nobody expects on this list. |
| #10 | AP Prime Bites Protein Brownie (1 brownie) | Alpha Prime | 1 brownie (57g) | 20g protein · 200 cal · 2g sugar | $6.25 | Soft, fudge-style brownies. Birthday Cake and Frosted Cinnamon Bun are the heaviest reorders. Alpha Prime is a US brand we ship cold-pack to keep texture intact. |
| #11 | Simply Scrumptous SAVOURY Keto Snacks (1 unit) | Simply Scrumptous | 1 unit (varies: 1 wrap, 1 pizza pocket, 1 chicken alfredo cup, etc.) | 19g protein · 260 cal · 1g sugar | $6.25 | Single-serve frozen savoury meals — Maple Bacon Donut, Chicken Alfredo, and Pizza Pockets are the top-3. The savoury keto category was almost empty before this brand. |
| #12 | Crisp Power High Protein Keto Vegan Pretzels (1 bag) | Crisp Power | 1 bag (35g) | 15g protein · 130 cal · 0g sugar | $5.99 | Vegan pretzels with 15g protein per bag — only protein pretzel widely available in Canada. Sour Cream & Onion and Pizza are the two reorder leaders. |

What surprised us this year
David Protein went from launch to #3 and #4 in under 12 months. David Gold launched in late 2024 with 28 grams of protein in a 150-calorie bar — macros nothing else in the category can match. Bronze (the 2025 reformulation) is already at #4. Combined, the David lineup is the single fastest-growing brand we have ever stocked.
Frozen single-serve treats are now a category. Simply Scrumptous (Vermont) ranked #2 and #11 with frozen donuts, cinnamon buns, pizza pockets, and chicken alfredo cups — categories that simply did not exist in Canada three years ago. Customers reorder these by the 20-pack.
Categories trending up
Three sub-categories grew double-digits in 2025 share of snack orders:
- Salty / savoury protein snacks — Quest Protein Chips (#15), Crisp Power Pretzels (#12), Sinfit Chips, Wilde Chips. The sweet-only snack era is over.
- Low-sugar gummies and candy — Shameless Snacks (#14), Joyride (#16), Protein Candy. Customers want candy textures without the sugar load.
- Single-serve frozen treats — Simply Scrumptous Sweet (#2) and Savoury (#11) lines, plus 321GLO (#20) brownies.
Categories trending down
Two areas softened in 2025:
- Classic chocolate-coated bars have steady customers but fewer new converts — the protein-bar shopper is now choosing between Built (#1), David (#3, #4), and Barebells (#5) as the “default” bar.
- RTD protein shakes are still sold but no shake cracked the top-20 snack ranking this year (we filtered those out by definition, but the broader category felt softer than 2024).
Best newcomer of 2025
ProBites — Belgian fridge-stored protein truffles. Arrived in our catalog mid-2024 and reached rank #7 (singles) plus #15 (10-pack box) in their first full year. Combined units put them in our top-5 brands by snack volume.
What Canadian customers buy that Americans don’t
Three flavours / formats are uniquely Canadian best-sellers:
- Built Banana Cream Pie Puff — banana flavour outsells US data for the same brand.
- Grenade White Chocolate Cookie — #1 Grenade flavour in Canada; not even top-3 in the US.
- Jell-O Sugar Free Instant Pudding (28g packets) — Canadians use these as a sugar-free flavour mix for Greek yogurt and protein shakes. A use case Americans largely do not share.
Value per gram of protein — cheapest top-20 by $/g
For shoppers optimizing macros per dollar, the most efficient top-20 pick is Misfits VEGAN Protein Bar (1 bar) (#18) at $0.199 per gram of protein.
Brands punching above their weight
Three smaller brands are over-indexing in the top-20:
- Crisp Power (Canadian vegan pretzels) at #12 — a small Quebec-adjacent brand outselling several US imports.
- ProBites at #7 / #15 — Belgian fridge-stored truffles outselling brands with 10x the marketing budget.
- 321GLO at #20 — small US bakery, mostly DTC, ranked above several mainstream brands in our Canadian top-20.

Les 20 collations protéinées les plus commandées au Canada en 2025
Données réelles d’un détaillant montréalais.
La plupart des listes de « meilleures collations protéinées » que vous trouvez en ligne sont basées sur des commissions d’affiliation ou des suppositions. Celle-ci est basée sur de vraies données de ventes canadiennes — 12 mois de commandes que nous avons expédiées de notre entrepôt de Montréal vers des clients dans chaque province. Diana Famintsyna (fondatrice de Top Nutrition & Fitness, juillet 2016) goûte personnellement chaque saveur avant que nous la stockions. Nos clients votent avec leur portefeuille. Voici les 20 produits qu’ils ont le plus recommandés entre le 22 mai 2025 et le 21 mai 2026.
