Sweetened Condensed Milk

Sweetened Condensed Milk is a thick, shelf‑stable milk product made by removing water from milk and adding sugar; it’s widely used in desserts and beverages across Latin American, European and Southeast Asian cuisines. It’s known for its creamy texture and long shelf life, and is a common ingredient in sweets, ice creams and coffee drinks. Nutritionally, Sweetened Condensed Milk is very high in sugar — it contains about 54.4g of sugar per 100g — and is calorie‑dense, but it also supplies concentrated milk protein and calcium typical of dairy. Because it’s a concentrated, sweetened dairy ingredient, it provides high‑quality milk protein and useful calcium, but its high added sugar content makes it something to use sparingly or replace with lower‑sugar alternatives when you want a healthier option.
