Abstract
Disclosed are stable concentrated dairy liquids exhibiting enhanced fresh dairy flavor notes and methods of making thereof. The resultant concentrated products herein include a reduced dairy protein level and increased fat content through a cream addition. By one approach, the concentrated dairy liquids have a protein to fat ratio of about 0.4 to about 0.7 achieved through the selection of the starting dairy base and a selected cream addition. Preferably, the cream addition occurs at specific input locations in the process in order to achieve stable concentrates.
