What it is

Pasteurized cream and milk are dairy products derived from cows, goats, or sheep. Pasteurization is a process of heating milk or cream to a specific temperature for a set period to kill harmful bacteria, making it safe for consumption.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use pasteurized cream and milk as primary ingredients in a wide variety of foods, providing richness, flavor, and a creamy texture. They are fundamental components in products like cheeses, ice cream, yogurt, butter, and baked goods, as well as in sauces and desserts.

Health notes

Pasteurized cream and milk are considered safe for consumption by the FDA. They are a natural source of calcium, vitamin D (if fortified), and protein. While generally recognized as safe, excessive intake of saturated fat from cream can be a concern for cardiovascular health, as noted in dietary guidelines. Regulatory bodies like EFSA and JECFA have evaluated dairy products.
