Great product!

This is a great shelf stable option for keeping milk on hand! We don’t use milk often so I’m happy to have this on hand for the limited times I need it for baking and cooking. It’s super easy to mix up and tastes great. I use a small electric frothing mixer and it gets the powder mixed nicely. It smells and tastes just like milk I would buy pre mixed. Very pleased with the quality and flavor!

Great taste but needs thorough mixing

The taste is excellent and creamy unless you water it down too much, and is just like store-bought milk. It's a fine powder that doesn't clump in the bag. It takes a bit to dissolve properly in cold water, and comes out best when you mix it with something like a frother. But once mixed it has no clumps or powdery texture at all. The reclosable bag is convenient although I inevitably get some powder stuck in it so it never closes quite right (it's user error but something to be aware of when you handle it). All in all this is a great powdered milk to have on hand and for going camping.

Whole Milk Powder

I purchased this Whole Milk Powder, which has proven to be a practical pantry essential. It gives coffee and baked items a rich, creamy texture and blends easily into shakes and smoothies without clumping too much. It feels like a cleaner option because it is shelf stable and free of hormones, antibiotics, and genetically modified organisms.The drawback is that it requires a little more stirring to completely dissolve in cold beverages, even though it mixes nicely in warm ones. Although the 12-ounce bag is practical for smaller households, it may run out sooner than anticipated if you use it frequently.All things considered, this milk powder is a premium, adaptable choice for anyone looking for a dependable, healthful alternative to fresh milk that is simple to preserve and incorporate into regular meals.

Non-typical instructions

The instructions for reconstitution are a bit wonky, imo. Generally, you see instructions to produce 1 cup (8oz) and it's like ½ cup powder to 1 cup water. But for this it's 4tbsp powder to 1 cup water and the serving size is 2tbsp. Aside from that, it's been great in baked goods and I don't have to worry about buying too much milk and it spoiling before I can use it. I don't notice any strange flavors or odd odor.Review for Healthier Comforts Whole Milk Powder | Shelf Stable | Kosher, Gluten Free, Non-GMO, Hormone and Antibiotic Free (12oz) (Pack of 1)

Better milk powder for your pantry!

If you have only had nonfat dry milk, or if you haven't had recently produced powdered milk that is made with updated processes that don't require heating it so much, you might not understand or believe that dry milk powder can actually reconstitute well and make a great ingredient in all sorts of recipes. I like to always keep powdered whole milk on hand for when I have run out of fresh milk and need it for a recipe. Powdered whole milk is a pantry staple for me and this Healthier Comforts brand milk was a great buy.Healthier Comforts powdered whole milk is also a good solution for making milk or smoothies in the car, while traveling, or for camping. Anyplace where you might want milk but lack facilities to refrigerate it, this will serve you well.To get the best results when reconstituting milk powder I use a smaller amount of warm/somewhat hot water and mix it up with a hand held coffee frother or whisk before adding the remaining quantity of water. If it needs to be cold, then refrigerate. The same goes for mixing it into drinks, it can work best to reconstitute it in a small amount of warm water using the coffee frother if you have one, or a whisk, and then add it to the drink (or, add the drink to the milk).This milk powder is fresh and white, and it was produced and packed in the USA. Good stuff! The Healthier Comforts dry whole milk has a best-by date of about two years from when I ordered it. It might be able to stay usable for even longer, especially in an unopened package, but powdered milk definitely loses quality after more time than that has passed. This type of packaging is not oriented to extended storage because I believe the plastic is somewhat air permeable. Well sealed mylar bags with oxygen absorbers would be an example of good long storage bags.Healthier Comforts brand also sells organic whole milk powder, but I don't care much whether things are organic as long as they're wholesome, and this non-organic whole milk powder is wholesome and a better value.

Pretty close to liquid, takes time to dissolve in cold/room temps

I ordered this Healthier Comforts Whole Milk Powder to take camping, but this was my first time trying this brand and was happy to give it a go. I've used powdered milk before, but never whole milk. I'd say the quality of the powder is very good upon opening - more powder than granule, not clumpy at all, and very dry with no hint of moisture creeping in. it comes in a resealable plastic bag, so very nice for storage, but not the best for keeping it fresh; hence I do keep it in the fridge. It takes 4 tables spoons to make a cup, so each bag will make about 3 quarts of milk - not a bad deal!!! I first tried mixing with cold water by placing the powder first and then adding room temp water and an electric frother. I found that it left a lot of sediment on the bottom and edges of the container, so definitely not a good method for mixing. I made a second batch using heated water first and then adding my powder before frothing and is a much better process for blending. There was very little residue and zero sediment at the bottom of the container. It's actually perfect as a powdered creamer, blending into my morning coffee very easily without clumping, hence a perfect camping condiment.As for taste, it's not 100% like the whole milk liquid containers that you purchase from the grocery store. It's better than what I've used in the past, but these were never whole milk powders as I've always purchased nonfat varieties. This actually tastes pretty good, with a taste very close to the liquid original, but I notice a slight scent similar to goat milk - so perhaps my sense of smell is off? At any rate, the flavor is pretty good.Overall, with a price of just under $13 for the pouch, it's a good value to have milk on hand for power outages, camping, etc.. It's definitely the best powdered milk that I've tried so far based on flavor!

Always Have Milk Handy

This came in a resealable bag. It is a fine powder. I mixed the instructed four tablespoons to a cup of water and found it tastes a little better than another store-bought milk powder I have used. When I mixed this the first time, I used cold water and found it didn't mix all the way, so after I have been using warm, not hot water.I like keeping milk powder on hand to use in recipes, not for drinking or using with cereal, etc. I often have milk go bad due to being the only person in the household. I very much appreciated being able to have a product like this on hand during the pandemic and also for other times, such as when it is hard to get to the store due to weather or sickness. So I always have some in my pantry. I find the price comparable with some other name brand products, but a lot higher than my local store brand.

Great flavor and ideal for recipes calling for milk!

This bag of milk powder is a great item to have stocked in your pantry for those times where you either can't get to the store or any other reason to have shelf stable milk! I've rarely used something like this, so thought I'd try it first with a pudding mix - low cost item but high reward if it works! The instructions were a little unclear, but each cup of water with mix equals one cup of milk. I needed four cups of this to make the pudding. I was able to easily whisk the powder together to make the milk base, before adding the pudding. After letting it set in the fridge and giving it one more whisk, the pudding came out smooth and stable, ready for eating! It tasted exactly as it should, and I even shocked my husband when I mentioned that it was made with powdered milk! I'm excited to try this product in other ways around the kitchen!

Dissolves easily and great for baking

I use a lot of milk powder in my baking, and this version from Healthier Comforts is really good quality. My bakes smell wonderful and the powder gives my bread a fluffy, sweet taste. I have also tried reconstituting it with warm water and found that it dissolved really easily and made a rich, frothy milk. For the price, ($12.99 at time of writing) I thought this was pretty reasonable as the resealable bag comes in a 12 oz size.

A milk substitute that checks all the boxes

The Healthier Comforts Whole Milk Powder is perfect for anyone who loves their shakes, smoothies, or even just a good cup of coffee. I love that it’s shelf-stable, so I don’t have to worry about it going bad any time soon.The fact that it’s kosher, gluten-free, and non-GMO really resonates with me, especially since I’m trying to be more mindful of what I consume. Plus, knowing it’s free from hormones and antibiotics gives me peace of mind. It’s like having a little taste of fresh milk without the hassle of refrigeration!I’ve been adding it to my morning smoothies, and it blends in so smoothly – no clumps at all. It adds a nice creaminess without being overly rich, which is exactly what I was hoping for. I even tried it in some baked goods, and it worked great there too!All in all, I’m really happy with this product. It’s versatile, convenient, and feels like a healthier option.

Works great in baking

I’ve been using this instead of liquid milk when baking bread and it’s coming out great. The dough is a tiny bit stickier this way, oddly enough, so I use another spoonful of flour. But it bakes up wonderfully. Excellent flavor. Really easy to scoop out of the bag, and the bag seals easily and completely. I don’t know how long this will last on my shelf because I’m well on my way to using it up, but the shelf life is definitely longer than the jug of milk in my fridge. It’s just an incredibly useful little add in to have in my baking supplies.

Smell and mixing issues

Tried using but it has a weird stench almost like a cow farm stench in the product. Product clumps up when one tries to mix in hot liquid or water. Very unusual composition because it didn’t mix easily.

No gritty taste!!

I've bought different brands and find this one is more fine texture than other brands and doesn't have gritty after taste. I use it thicker for my coffee and I love it, it even gives me a frothy top. Love it and will purchase again!!

Bought it for travel and camping for use in coffee; PERFECT!

I've purchased heavy cream powder before for travel for use in coffee. It did not mix well. This stuff is great! I put 2 large soup spoons of the powder into a cup and added 3 soup spoons of slightly warm water to it and it blended completely! It tastes good too! I only made it up twice to try in coffee; I did not make a full cup or glass to drink but based upon my experience with making a thick creamer I think it would be great to use in other ways as well. Very happy with it as a travel option!

Tastes just like fresh milk! Amazing quality.

The quality and price are flawless. It tastes wonderful and is almost identical to fresh milk. What I love most is that it’s a Kosher-certified product, so I can trust the quality without any worries. I’m very impressed with how rich and natural it tastes. Highly recommended!
