A spray-dried composition comprising an enzyme which is a β-galactosidase having transgalactosylating activity and a maltodextrin and/or sodium chloride.

The disclosure relates generally to dairy compositions comprising lactose hydrolysis products such as preferably glucose and galactose optionally further in combination with unhydrolysed lactose, and glucosylated natural steviol glycosides. Furthermore, the disclosure relates to the used of glucosylated natural steviol glycosides to enhance the sweetness of a dairy product composition, wherein the dairy composition comprises lactose hydrolysis products. Also disclosed is a method of modifying the flavor of a dairy composition treated with lactase by introducing a glucosylated natural steviol glycoside.

The present invention relates to new improved peptide or dimeric peptides exhibiting betagalactosidase enzyme activity wherein the peptide has a pH optimum at acidic conditions.

The present invention relates to low calorie and low carbohydrate nutritional milk compositions and milk products which are designed to include specific components of milk.

Disclosed are methods for preparing dairy compositions using an ultrafiltration step, a nanofiltration step, and a forward osmosis step.

Systems and methods for filtering dairy may filter milk with a wide-pore filter to produce a wide-pore retentate and a wide-pore permeate, wherein the wide-pore retentate may comprise casein and beta-lactoglobulin. The systems and methods may further ultra-filter the wide-pore permeate to produce an ultra-filtered retentate and an ultra-filtered permeate, wherein the ultra-filtered retentate comprises alpha-lactalbumin. The systems and methods may further nano-filter the ultra-filtered permeate to produce a nano-filtered retentate and a nano-filtered permeate, wherein the nano-filtered retentate comprises lactose. The systems and methods may further perform reverse osmosis (RO) on the nano-filtered permeate to produce a reverse osmosis retentate and a reverse osmosis permeate.

The invention concerns a sweetened dairy product comprising a dairy material, at least one steviol glycoside, and a lactase enzyme.

The present invention relates to compositions, particularly liquid compositions, comprising enzymes, methods of making the compositions, and uses of the same for making, e.g., dairy products.

The present invention relates to a food ingredient comprising galactooligosaccharides, a way of producing it and cocoa and/or malt beverage products comprising the ingredient. The food ingredient is produced by adding a beta-galactosidase to a composition comprising non-fat milk solids including lactose. The food ingredient may be used e.g. in cocoa and/or malt beverage products to reduce fat and/or sugar without detrimentally impacting sweetness, taste and/or texture.

A butter with caramel is suggested, which is obtainable or obtained by: (a) separating whole milk into a skimmed milk fraction and a cream fraction by means of a separation step; (b) subjecting the cream fraction such obtained to a nanofiltration (NF) step and/or a reverse osmosis (RO) step, obtaining a NF/RO retentate and a NF/RO permeate; (c) subjecting the NF/RO retentate such obtained to a heat treatment step, in the process of which the sugar contained therein is caramelised at least in part; and (d) churning the caramelised NF/RO retentate such obtained in a manner known per se.
