What it is
Yogurt flavored confectionary coating is a sweet, often white or off-white, coating designed to mimic the taste and appearance of yogurt. It is made from a blend of sugar, vegetable oils, milk solids, and flavorings, and is not true yogurt.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use this coating to add a tangy, yogurt-like flavor and a smooth texture to foods. It is commonly found on snacks like pretzels, popcorn, nuts, and granola bars, as well as frozen treats, providing a sweet and slightly tart contrast.
Health notes
Yogurt flavored confectionary coating is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is primarily composed of sugar and fat, and like other sugary treats, excessive consumption can contribute to health issues associated with high sugar intake. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated many of its components, but specific evaluations for the coating as a whole are not widely publicized.
Allergen info
This ingredient is derived from milk, which is one of the FDA's major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
