Whole milk

Whole milk is a dairy product that comes from cows. It is a type of milk that has not had any fat removed, unlike semi-skimmed or skimmed milk. Whole milk is a common ingredient used in various food products for its creamy texture and rich taste.

To make whole milk, fresh cow's milk is collected and then pasteurised to kill any harmful bacteria. It is then homogenised to ensure the cream blends evenly throughout the milk, giving it a smooth consistency. The milk is usually standardised to a specific fat content to meet regulatory requirements before being packaged and distributed for sale.

Whole milk appears on food labels as an ingredient in products like ice cream, yogurt, cheese, and baked goods. It is used to add creaminess and richness to foods, enhancing flavour and texture. Whole milk can also contribute to the browning of baked goods and plays a key role in ensuring tender and moist cakes and muffins.
