About Smash Melon
Smash Melon isn’t just another protein powder - it’s a real food ingredient made for real kitchens.
For years, cold-pressed watermelon seed protein has been quietly used by high-end food makers to add protein to snacks and better-for-you foods. Now, that same ingredient is finally available for home cooks, bakers, and everyday eaters who just want an easy way to add more protein to the foods they already love.

What Makes Us Different
We're not a "drink it and done" protein brand. While Smash Melon can be blended into smoothies, that's not where it shines. It's made to be stirred, mixed, and baked into everyday meals — oatmeal, pancakes, sauces, soups, and more. It boosts nutrition without changing the flavor or taking over your recipe. Think of it as protein that works with your food, not against it.
From Seed to Scoop
This protein isn't easy to make, and that's kind of the point. It starts with a specific type of watermelon grown for its high seed content. The seeds are carefully harvested, dehulled, and processed to reveal a clean, white, protein-rich kernel. From there, they're cleaned to extremely high purity standards and cold-pressed at carefully controlled temperatures.
Our Process
01
Harvest
Seeds are carefully harvested from watermelons grown specifically for high seed content
02
Dehull & Clean
Seeds are dehulled and cleaned to extremely high purity standards
03
Cold-Press
Cold-pressing gently separates oil from protein without chemicals or solvents
04
Mill
Dense protein pellets are slowly milled into fine, culinary-friendly powder
Everything happens in a family-owned, allergen-free facility in the United States that's SQF certified and quality-obsessed (just like us). Temperature is monitored every step of the way to keep the protein fresh, functional, and true to its natural form.
Our Promise
We'll be honest… Smash Melon isn't the cheapest protein out there. And we're okay with that.
We don't compete with ultra-processed proteins full of fillers or heavy processing. Instead, we focus on protecting the integrity of the ingredient and delivering a clean, single-ingredient protein you can actually feel good about using.
When you choose Smash Melon, you're choosing a thoughtfully made protein that fits into real life — one that boosts your meals without cutting corners on quality.
How to Use Smash Melon
Smash Melon is meant to be used as a food ingredient first, not just a shake mix.
Because it's a single-ingredient, cold-pressed protein with no fillers or emulsifiers, it behaves a little differently than highly processed proteins, and that's by design.
It works best when mixed into foods you already eat, like:
- Oatmeal, porridge, or overnight oats
- Pancake, waffle, cookie, or muffin batter
- Yogurt, applesauce, or chia pudding
- Soups, sauces, and savory dishes
- Mac & cheese (yes, really)
- Rice crispy treats turned into protein crispies
- Smoothies — just know the texture is more natural and slightly grainy
One scoop delivers 22g of plant-based protein, without changing the flavor of your food when used in meals.
What to Expect
Smash Melon isn't engineered to dissolve like synthetic proteins. You may notice a more natural texture, especially in liquids, and that's simply the result of minimal processing + zero additives.
For best results, mix it into warm foods, batters, or thicker bases where it blends in seamlessly.
No sweeteners.
No flavors.
No additives.
Just watermelon seed protein — made to quietly upgrade the nutrition of the foods you already love.
