What it is
Sweetened condensed milk is milk from which water has been removed and to which sugar has been added. It is typically made from cow's milk, where about 60% of the water is evaporated, and then sugar is added to preserve it and give it a sweet taste.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add sweetened condensed milk for its sweetness, creamy texture, and preservative qualities. It is commonly found in desserts such as pies, cakes, candies, and ice cream, as well as in beverages like coffee and smoothies.
Health notes
Sweetened condensed milk is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of sugar and calories, and high intake may contribute to health concerns associated with excess sugar consumption. JECFA has evaluated sweetened condensed milk and established specifications for its composition and quality.
Allergen info
Sweetened condensed milk is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
