A 240 g tub of vanilla powdered coffee creamer whose first ingredient is hydrolyzed collagen peptides from bovine hide — a creamer with no dairy on its ingredient list, sweetened with stevia rather than sugar.
Highlights
✓
Collagen is the lead ingredient, and its source is stated: hydrolyzed collagen peptides from bovine hide, described by Minimo as grass-fed. That makes this an animal product — not suitable for vegetarian or vegan diets, and worth checking if you avoid beef-derived ingredients.
✓
The creaminess comes from medium chain triglycerides and acacia powder, with pea protein powder and calcium carbonate — no milk, cream or whey appears on the ingredient list. Minimo positions it against creamers “filled with sugar, vegetable oil, and dairy”. There is, however, no written allergen statement to confirm it is milk-free in manufacture, and pea protein is on the list if legumes are a concern.
✓
Sweetened with stevia extract and flavoured with “natural flavor”; the brand states it is free from added sugar, seed oils and artificial sweeteners. If you dislike the aftertaste stevia leaves, that is the ingredient to weigh up before buying a whole tub.
✓
No gram amount of collagen is published — not per scoop, not per serving. The label's published suggested use is two scoops in 8–10 fl oz of a hot or cold drink, but the scoop size is not stated either, so you cannot work out how much collagen goes into a cup from the page.
✓
Net weight is published and separated from shipping weight: 0.53 lb (240 g) of powder against 0.66 lb (300 g) gross, which agrees with the 8.5 oz in the name.
This is a creamer first: buy it to change what goes in your coffee or tea, not as a collagen supplement you happen to stir in. If collagen is what you are actually after, Minimo's Grass-Fed Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptides is the standalone powder. The creamer also pairs naturally with the Daily Mushroom Brew, which Minimo sells unsweetened and suggests finishing with a creamer of your choice.
Minimo's own copy also attaches skin, hair, nail, joint and digestion benefits to the collagen in this creamer. We have not repeated those here: the FDA has not evaluated them, this is not a treatment for any condition, and the page gives no collagen amount against which to weigh them. The brand also describes its cattle as “ethically raised” and roaming “free in lush pastures”; no certifier or grass-fed standard is named behind that. The rest of the supplements range sits alongside it.
