What it is
Milk fat powder is a dairy ingredient made by removing water from milk fat, often sourced from cream or butter. This process creates a concentrated, dried form of milk fat that is easy to store and use.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add milk fat powder to foods to enhance flavor, provide a creamy texture, and contribute to a rich mouthfeel. It is frequently found in products like chocolate, snacks, and sweet baked goods to improve their overall palatability.
Health notes
Milk fat powder is derived from milk, a common food ingredient generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. As a source of dietary fat, it contributes to the fat content of foods, including saturated fat. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend keeping intake of saturated fat to less than 10% of daily calories. JECFA and EFSA have not evaluated milk fat powder as a food additive, as it is considered a basic food component.
Allergen info
Milk fat powder is derived from milk, which is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA.
