T.Hasegawa USA Hasemilk has been formally launched by the flavor manufacturer as a new powdered plant-based milk that leverages advanced technology to achieve a refined taste and texture.
The product is targeted towards food and beverage manufacturers to improve the sensory experience of their dairy-free formulations, and works by mimicking the characteristics of milk fat. The end result is a creamy, milk-like consistency that doesn't have any dairy ingredients to work well for a variety of applications. The dry format also helps to enhance the product's convenience and ability to be incorporated into the supply chain.
T.Hasegawa USA Hasemilk is being launched in three formats including fresh whole milk, whole milk powder and skim milk powder, which each meet the FDA guidelines for natural flavors while also being Kosher, non-GMO, non-allergen and Prop 65 compliant.
