Cream & Milk Concentrates are highly versatile and can be used across a wide range of food applications. Cream & Milk Concentrates are ideal for low fat applications where they deliver a rich dairy profile and creamy mouth-feel at a fraction of the fat, calorie and cholesterol content. With typical concentrations of up to 60 to 70 times that of regular cream and milk, our Cream & Milk Concentrates can be used from as low as 0.1%. Cream & Milk Concentrates are available in convenient to use paste and powder formats with a shelf-life of 6 to 12 months.
Cream Concentrate is ideal in ice cream and desserts e.g. Crème Brulee, Pannacotta, Crème Caramel and other sweet – creamy sauces. Cream Concentrate provides natural dairy flavour and mouth feel in cream alternatives. In UHT and Nutritional beverages it works very well at masking off flavours e.g. from heat treatment, soya and nutritional fortification. Cream & Condensed Milk Concentrates are ideal in confectionery applications e.g toffee and fudge and in caramel and butter scotch sauces and dulce de leche.
Our Food Scientists and Applications Technologist can help you to select the correct products and usage rates for your exact need. We can develop new, custom made concentrates to meet our customers’ specific requirements.
