Key Ingredients and Their Functions

A coffee creamer of this type would likely contain a combination of the following ingredients:

Glucose Syrup Solids: This is the primary ingredient, acting as a base that provides sweetness and body.

Vegetable Fat: Often palm or coconut oil, which gives the creamer its richness and smooth texture.

Stabilizers and Emulsifiers: Ingredients like stabilizers (e.g., potassium phosphate) and emulsifiers (e.g., sodium stearoyl lactylate) are used to prevent the coffee creamer from curdling and to ensure it mixes smoothly with the hot coffee.

Caseinates (Milk Protein): While a "non-dairy" creamer may not contain lactose, it often contains milk proteins (like sodium caseinate) derived from milk. This is a key ingredient that provides a creamy taste and texture.

Flavoring and Colorings: Artificial or natural flavorings are added to give it a specific taste, and colorings are used to achieve the desired white color.
