Inna Protein Brand Deep Dive: What Makes Faba Bean Protein Different?

Most vegan protein powders lean on pea or soy isolate. Inna Protein, an Australian family-owned brand formerly known as Pure Plant Protein, built its entire line around a less common base: Australian-grown faba bean isolate. It keeps the rest of the ingredient list deliberately short, and makes its products in Victoria.

This deep dive covers the protein itself, the flavour range, the other products, pricing, shipping and the policies worth knowing.

A faba bean base with high protein content

Faba beans, also called broad beans, are the foundation of every Inna protein powder. Inna's product pages list the isolate at 80%+ protein, and its homepage cites 88% protein content. In practical terms, each 30g serve of the flavoured powders provides 24.3g of protein at 114 calories, and the unflavoured powder provides 25.3g at 107 calories.

Inna describes the protein as complete and promotes its texture heavily: no grit, no bloat, and a smooth mix in a shaker or blender. Texture is one of the most common complaints about plant proteins, so this is the brand's main point of difference after the bean itself.

Short ingredient lists

The unflavoured powder is a single ingredient: faba bean isolate, with no sweetener and zero sugar. The vanilla, chocolate and coconut powders each contain four ingredients, and salted caramel contains five, with real sea salt to balance the sweetness. All flavoured powders are made without artificial sweeteners, and Inna's sachet products are listed as dairy free, gluten free, soy free and vegan.

Six flavours at one price

Every flavour costs $59 AUD for a 750g bag with 25 serves:

• Unflavoured: for cooking, baking and savoury food
• Vanilla: light and creamy, the all-rounder
• Chocolate: made with real cacao, good in baking
• Coconut: a lower seller online but, Inna says, one of its best sellers at markets where people can taste it
• Salted Caramel: suggested with cold brew for an iced protein coffee
• Matcha: made with real matcha, so it contains caffeine along with naturally occurring L-theanine

Single 30g sample sachets cost $5, and the Starter Bundle ($26) includes one sachet of each flavour.

Beyond protein powder

• Protein pancake mixes in vanilla and chocolate ($14.50 per 200g, or $22 for two), with around 21 to 22g of protein per 100g. Made in Australia with at least 50% Australian ingredients.
• Creatine Monohydrate ($28 for 300g), a single-ingredient product with no fillers or sweeteners. Inna suggests 3 to 5g daily.
• Accessories: a dosing scoop ($8, black or gold) and a bamboo storage canister ($12).

Bundles and subscription pricing

A single bag works out at $2.36 per serve. Inna's multi-buys lower that:

• 2 Pack Special: $108 (about $2.16 per serve)
• 3 Pack Special: $139 (about $1.85 per serve)
• Stock-Up Bundle, six bags: $249 (about $1.66 per serve)
• Subscribe & Save: 15% off every order, with the option to skip, cancel or swap at any time

Mixed bundles add pancakes and creatine: Foodie ($89), Performance ($99), Taster ($59) and Complete ($149).

Made in-house in Victoria

Inna manufactures in a HACCP-certified facility in Victoria and ships from its Melbourne warehouse. HACCP is a food safety management system, so certification means the facility runs documented controls over food safety hazards. The brand says its expertise in nutrition and recipes stretches back more than 15 years across several countries and industries.

Shipping and returns

• Dispatch: within 24 hours on business days; orders before 12pm AEST ship the same day.
• Australia: free shipping on orders over $120; otherwise live Australia Post rates. Delivery takes 1 to 3 business days in Melbourne metro, 2 to 5 interstate metro, and 3 to 7 for regional areas, WA, Tasmania and the NT.
• International: ships to New Zealand, Singapore, the United States and Malaysia at live carrier rates. Local import duties may apply.
• Returns: a 30-day satisfaction guarantee from the date of purchase, on top of Australian Consumer Law rights. Damaged or faulty items should be reported within 14 days of delivery.

Using it day to day

Inna's own suggestions show how the range is meant to be used. The flavoured powders are designed to mix with water or milk as a shake, or to go into smoothies; salted caramel is suggested blended with cold brew, and coconut paired with frozen fruit. Vanilla and chocolate also work baked into protein balls, muffins and brownies. The unflavoured powder is positioned for cooking: stirred into oats or yoghurt, blended into smoothies without changing their flavour, added to soups and sauces, or used in baking where a flavoured powder would not suit.

A practical tip with any unflavoured powder is to whisk it into a little cool liquid before adding it to anything hot, which avoids clumps. One 30g serve a day means a 750g bag lasts 25 days, so regular users will usually find the subscription or the multi-pack specials better value than buying single bags.

Who this actually fits

• Vegan or plant-based shoppers wanting an alternative to the usual pea or soy protein base
• People who have been put off plant protein by gritty texture or heavy sweetness
• Home cooks who want a genuinely single-ingredient unflavoured powder
• Australian buyers who value a locally grown, locally made product
• Less ideal for buyers who specifically want whey, or who need very low-cost bulk protein regardless of source

Conclusion

Inna Protein's differentiation is specific: a faba bean isolate base, a short ingredient list, a smooth texture, and Australian production.
