The present invention relates to a milk powder comprising caseins and whey proteins wherein the powder upon reconstitution in an aqueous medium comprises casein-whey protein/fat aggregates having a mean diameter value Dv50 of at least 1 mycrom as measured by laser diffraction. The invention also relates to a process for preparing a milk powder including the steps of providing a liquid milk concentrate at T<25°C, adjusting pH to 5.7-6.4, heating at 80-150°C for 3-300s, cooling to below 70°C and optionally readjusting the pH to between 6.5-6.8, drying the composition, and the milk powder obtained by this process for producing growing up milks, culinary sauces, coffee mixes, tea and coffee creamer or cocoa-malt beverages. |
