Malted milk
Malted milk is a variable powder combining malted cereal extract with milk ingredients, used to flavour drinks, desserts and baked goods.
About Malted milk
Malted milk usually refers to a powder made with malted cereal extract and milk ingredients, though recipes and proportions vary by product. It is not simply malted grain or plain milk; the term describes a prepared ingredient combining these components.
The powder is used to flavour drinks, desserts, and baked goods. It is typically pale beige to light brown, dry and fine, and has a sweet, creamy, malty taste. It may be sold plain or blended with additional flavourings or sweeteners, so the exact product formulation matters.
