Definition and Scope: Sweet whey powder is a dairy by-product obtained during the cheese-making process, specifically from rennet-coagulated cheese such as cheddar and mozzarella. It is produced by removing water from sweet liquid whey, followed by drying and powdering. The product contains approximately 11–14% protein, 70–75% lactose, 1–2% fat, and 8–9% ash, and has a pH ranging from 5.9 to 6.6. Sweet whey powder is distinguished from acid whey powder by its sweeter taste and higher lactose content. It is widely used in the food industry for its functional properties, such as emulsification, gelation, and water-binding, as well as a cost-effective source of dairy solids in food formulations. The global market for sweet whey powder is driven by its applications in bakery, confectionery, dairy products, and animal feed, especially in regions with strong dairy and livestock industries.
