What it is

Soy milk powder is made by drying liquid soy milk. Soy milk itself is produced from soybeans, which are soaked, ground, and filtered to remove solids. The resulting liquid is then spray-dried or freeze-dried to create a powder.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use soy milk powder as a dairy-free alternative to milk powder, adding protein and a creamy texture to foods. It is often found in baked goods like cookies and biscuits, as well as in breakfast items and snacks, where it can also act as an emulsifier.

Health notes

Soy milk powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Soy products are a source of plant-based protein and isoflavones, which have been studied for various health effects. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated soy and soy products. Evidence on the health effects of soy consumption is mixed, with ongoing research into its impact on hormonal health and other areas.

Allergen info

Soy milk powder is derived from soy, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
