Global Market Likely to be Driven by Uses in Different Types of Foods, Including Sauces, Salads, Dips, Soups, etc.

Cheese powder is a rich powder manufactured from cheese culture, salt, and other ingredients. The powder is similar to typical cheese in flavour, but does not possess the moisture that regular cheese does. It is generally eaten on popcorn, vegetables, or other foods and dishes that warrant extra flavouring or cheese. It is a popular seasoning and a common substitute for plain salt.

Several variations of cheese powder are available in the market. Cheese powder often comes in different flavours, including mild cheddar, sharp cheddar, Parmesan, and white cheddar. Extra seasonings and spices are also commonly added to make spicy cheese powders or other types of unique flavoured powders. Some powders may have a richer and fuller flavour, while others offer a more mild or salty taste.

Convenience in Operations Afforded by Cheese Powder Likely to Stimulate Global Cheese Powder Market Growth

Cheese powder offers an economical and more “operations-friendly” choice of adding flavour to a product, as compared to adding expensive aged cheese. Cheese powders usually comprise ten to fifteen percent of most final products, and the actual percentage of real cheese within cheese powder varies with product. A typical cheese powder may contain up to 15% cheese, whey, vegetable oil, maltodextrin, and calcium caseinate. Often, artificial flavours, natural flavours and flavour potentiators are added to cheese powder as flavour enhancers. Cheese powders are usually used for dry snacks and sauces, or re-hydrated and used in fillings. Use of high-flavour cheeses enables a more flavourful cheese powder and better value to the manufacturer.

Cheese powder is a practical replacement for hard cheeses because of its convenience in handling, storage and shelf stability. While dried cheese contains fat, product manufacturers may decrease fat content by replacing cheese with lower levels of powdered cheese made of high-flavour cheeses.

Generally, suppliers add whey, milkfat, salt and also non-dairy ingredients (such as maltodextrin or vegetable oil) to cheese when manufacturing cheese powders; powders can be marketed as reduced-fat or reduced-sodium, using low-fat and low-salt cheese as the cheese ingredient. Cheese powders are used in sauces, salad dressings, soups, dips, flavoured meats, sausages, etc., and fit for topical applications such as flavouring chips, popcorn, French fries, and other snack foods. Cheese powder is gaining popularity outside US markets, with countries with less dairy resources developing western taste buds.
