Fuente: WIPO "milk" Methods are disclosed for the manufacturing of concentrated and commercially-sterile forms of ice cream mix that can be stored at room temperature for several months without microbiological, physical, or chemical changes. Reverse osmosis concentration of fat-adjusted milk creates the milk concentrate with the appropriate and desired fat and nonfat milk solids levels. Food substances/additives that are desired in the final ice cream product are added at appropriate level(s) to the concentrated milk to produce an ice cream mix. The ice cream mix is ultra-high temperature processed and aseptically-packaged to create a commercially-sterilize ice cream mix that can be stored at room temperature until use in the manufacture of ice cream products.
