Sweetened Condensed Milk

Sweetened condensed milk is a popular and versatile dairy product known for its rich, creamy texture and sweet taste. It is produced by removing water from fresh milk and adding sugar resulting in a thick syrupy liquid that is indulgent and delicious. It is widely used in many food and beverage applications due to its extended shelf life, flavor depth, richness, and creaminess.
