Short answer: egg white powder is almost pure protein (81 g per 100 g, no fat), so it suits shakes and lean baking. Whole egg powder keeps the yolk (48 g protein and 44 g fat per 100 g), so it cooks like real eggs and carries the yolk nutrients egg whites lack: choline, vitamin B12, vitamin A and vitamin D.

Getting 25 g of protein
| Whole egg powder | Egg white powder | |
|---|---|---|
| Powder needed | about 52 g | about 31 g |
| Calories | about 308 kcal | about 118 kcal |
| Choline | about 660 mg | about 3 mg |
Egg white powder is the leaner way to add protein. Whole egg powder costs more calories per gram of protein, but 52 g of it also covers more than the Daily Value for choline (550 mg).
Which one to buy
- Shakes, oats, protein baking: egg white powder. It mixes clean, has no fat and no egg taste.
- Scrambles, omelettes, French toast, camping and a pantry backup: whole egg powder. It behaves like beaten fresh eggs because the yolk is still there.
- Both: many people keep egg whites for daily protein and whole egg powder for cooking.

Does egg white powder have choline?
Barely: 8 mg per 100 g. Choline sits in the yolk, so whole egg powder has 1,267 mg per 100 g.
