Baby Food

When you develop Baby Food you want to create the best possible product and taste with real food. No e-numbers. No salt. Just real ingredients. Lactosan Cheese Powders are suitable for a wide range of Baby Foods (+12 months) such as solid food, snacks, and desserts as well as ready-to-drink products.

Based on our expertise in production and technology Lactosan offers solutions that meet the trends and needs in the baby food category. Using our Cheddar Cheese Powder and Blue Cheese Powder we have recently helped customers in both Europe and Asia to develop innovative baby food products focusing on cleaner labelling with no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives, smoother textures, and a better taste.
