With our comprehensive testing services, you can ensure that your flavoured milk meets FSSAI safety and quality standards. We analyze key parameters, including fat content, SNF, additives, microbial load, adulterants, and contaminants, to ensure compliance and consumer safety.
Flavoured milk is a sterilized milk-based beverage enhanced with approved flavouring agents and sweeteners to create a palatable and nutritious drink. When prepared using double-toned milk, it provides a low-fat, protein-rich option that meets both taste and health expectations. As per the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), flavoured milk made from double-toned milk must conform to specific compositional, safety, and labeling standards.
Base Milk: Double-toned milk containing 3% minimum milk fat and 8.5% minimum solids-not-fat (SNF)
Flavours: Only permitted natural, nature-identical, or artificial flavouring substances as listed under FSSAI regulations may be used
Sweetening: May contain sugar or permitted sweeteners within prescribed limits
Sterilization: Must undergo heat treatment (such as pasteurization, UHT, or in-bottle sterilization) and be packed in aseptic or hermetically sealed containers
Testing of flavoured milk made from double-toned dairy is essential to ensure compliance with the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) standards related to safety, composition, additives, and labeling. The primary objectives of testing include:
Verification of Milk Base Composition
To confirm that the base milk used is double-toned milk, containing a minimum of 3.0% milk fat and 8.5% SNF (solids-not-fat) as per FSSAI standards.
Microbiological Safety Testing
To detect the presence of harmful pathogens such as Salmonella, E. coli, and Listeria, and ensure the product is safe for consumption after sterilization or pasteurization.
Additive and Flavouring Compliance
To ensure only FSSAI-permitted flavours, colours, preservatives, and sweeteners are used within the prescribed limits.
Chemical and Contaminant Testing
To check for antibiotic residues, pesticides, heavy metals, and other chemical contaminants that may compromise safety.
Nutritional Label Verification
To validate declared nutritional values (calories, protein, sugar, etc.) and ensure that they align with actual test results and FSSAI labeling requirements.
Shelf Life and Stability Testing
To evaluate product stability over time and confirm the declared shelf life, especially for UHT or aseptically packaged variants.
Packaging and Labeling Compliance
To check for correct product naming (e.g., “Flavoured Milk – Made from Double Toned Milk”), ingredient declaration, FSSAI license number, allergen information, and +F logo (if fortified).
