Whey protein is one of the primary proteins found in dairy products. This protein consists of amino acids that are essential for the body’s functions. To prepare sweet whey powder, whey, a by-product of the cheese-making process, is dried using the spray drying method and then converted into powder.
Sweet whey powder is used as an ingredient in the production of food products such as dairy products, confectionery, infant formula, and various sauces. This ingredient is also added to food products to increase their protein content.
