Substantiation, directions and results of using whey processed products in ice cream production

Abstract

The deficiency of protein is an important global problem. Whey, as a by-product of the production of cheese and cottage cheese, can be an additional source of protein. The feasibility of using whey for food purposes due to its composition and biological value is substantiated in the review. Besides, the usage of whey for food purposes reduces threat of environmen‑tal pollution existing when disposing it into the sewer. The aim of the article was to collect, analyze and summarize data on the use of whey and products of its processing in the technology of ice cream and whipped frozen desserts. The analysis of the data of the International Dairy Federation (IDF) on the global volumes of milk whey production as well as the amount of high-value protein, to which they are equivalent, is given.
