What it is
Yolk powder is made from dried egg yolks. Egg yolks are the yellow, nutrient-rich part of an egg. They are separated from the egg whites and then dried, often using spray-drying methods, to create a powder.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use yolk powder as an emulsifier, binder, and for its color and flavor. It helps to blend oil and water in products like sauces and baked goods. It is also found in seasonings, baked goods, and some dairy-free products where an egg-like richness is desired.
Health notes
Yolk powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of fats, proteins, and some vitamins found in egg yolks. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated egg yolk and its components. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming yolk powder at typical dietary levels.
Allergen info
Yolk powder is derived from eggs, which are one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
