Question

Can non-dairy creamer be used in ice cream pre-mixtures instead of milk powder?

ANSWER

Non-dairy creamer can be incorporated in ice cream applications for its economy, good antioxidant capacity,  easy dissolvement in water and ease of handling (Wang & Liu, 2014). Addition of sodium caseinate provides a sense of milk (milk-taste) (Rosida et al., 2016), improve the texture and increase the rate of melting (Arbuckle, 2013).
