A nutritional composition comprises a protein component, a lipid component and a carbohydrate component, minerals, vitamins and water, wherein the protein component comprises at least two different protein sources; wherein the first protein source is hydrolysed collagen; the lipid component provides at least 30 EN % of the total energy of the composition and the first source of protein represents 35-95 wt % based on the total weight of the protein component. The nutritional composition provides a homogeneous emulsion of high energy density (e.g. at least 3 kcal/mL) and high protein density (e.g. at least 14 g/100 mL).
