Frequently Asked Questions
What technological functions does sweet whey powder perform in recipes?
SWP acts as a filling ingredient, improves product structure, and affects taste through its natural lactose content. It can also support caramelization processes and the Maillard reaction in heat-treated products.
In which industries is SWP most commonly used?
Sweet whey powder is used in the baking, confectionery, and dairy industries, in the production of snacks, instant meals, and animal feed. It is also used in milk mixes and desserts.
How does SWP affect the flavor profile of the final product?
Thanks to its natural lactose and milk content, SWP gives products a slightly milky, sweet taste. It can also mitigate the intensity of other ingredients in the formulation.
Can sweet whey powder be used as a partial replacement for other milk ingredients?
Yes, depending on the recipe, SWP can partially replace milk powder or other milk ingredients, especially in applications where lactose content and dry matter are key, rather than high protein levels.
Where can I buy sweet whey powder?
Sweet whey powder can be purchased through the FDCM platform, which offers raw materials and ingredients used in food, supplements, and animal feed.
