What it is

Cream blend is a mixture of dairy-based ingredients, typically including cream, milk, and sometimes butter. It is designed to provide a richer flavor and smoother texture than standard milk or cream alone. The specific composition can vary depending on the intended application.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use cream blends to enhance the richness, mouthfeel, and flavor of a wide variety of products. They are often found in frozen dinners, desserts like ice cream and cheesecake, and other prepared foods where a creamy texture is desired. The blend can also improve stability and consistency in finished goods.

Health notes

Cream blend is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA as a food ingredient. It is a source of fat and calories. Regulatory bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar dairy components, but specific evaluations for 'cream blend' as a distinct entity may not be available. At typical consumption levels, it contributes to dietary fat intake.

Allergen info

Cream blend is derived from milk, which is one of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
