What it is

Condensed milk sugar is a sweetener made from milk. It is produced by evaporating water from milk and then adding sugar. This process concentrates the milk solids and sugar.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add condensed milk sugar primarily as a sweetener and to contribute to texture and flavor. Its concentrated nature makes it useful in a variety of dairy-based desserts and confections.

Health notes

Condensed milk sugar is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of added sugars, and high intake of added sugars is linked to health concerns. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated similar sugar-based ingredients. Evidence on the health effects of added sugars is extensive, with ongoing research.

Allergen info

Condensed milk sugar is derived from milk, which is one of the FDA's major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
