A process for preparing a galacto-oligosaccharide product comprises exposing a permeate composition to one or more enzymes that convert one or more compounds in the permeate composition to one or more galacto-oligosaccharide compounds to provide a galacto-oligosaccharide solution, wherein at least about 10% of total sugar, by weight, in the galacto-oligosaccharide solution is in the form of the one or more galacto-oligosaccharide compounds, and concentrating at least a portion of the galacto-oligosaccharide solution to provide a galacto-oligosaccharide syrup. In an example, a galacto-oligosaccharide product, for example made by the process, comprises a dry or substantially dry powder including one or more dried compounds from a permeate composition and at least 20% by weight of one or more galacto-oligosaccharides, wherein the powder is free or substantially free from a drying agent.
