Because of fresh milk’s high water content, no liquid milk products are used in chocolate production. Powdered milk products have the advantage that their low water content means that they can be immediately processed without previous dehydration.

Whole milk powder is made from whole milk. It is a powdered product with a lightly yellowish appearance and a dry mass fat content of at least 26%. Its smell and taste resemble that of skimmed milk powder. However, because of the higher fat content, it tastes milkier and fuller bodied.

All moisture is removed from milk during the production of whole milk powder. However, its important nutrients are kept.

A specially developed milk powder mixture is one of the secrets of our delicious RITTER SPORT chocolates. Unfortunately, this means that we cannot tell you anymore than that.
