What it is

Powdered cream, also known as dried cream or cream powder, is a dairy product made by removing water from cream. This is typically done through spray-drying, a process that evaporates the liquid, leaving behind a fine powder.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use powdered cream as a convenient source of dairy flavor and richness without the spoilage issues of liquid cream. It's added to dry mixes for desserts, baked goods, and savory dishes, allowing for easier storage and longer shelf life.

Health notes

Powdered cream is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of fat and calories, similar to liquid cream. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated dairy products, but specific evaluations for powdered cream's health effects at typical consumption levels are not widely publicized.

Allergen info

Powdered cream is derived from milk and is therefore a major allergen. It does not contain gluten.
