CALCIUM CASEINATE

Calcium Caseinate Applications

WHAT IS CALCIUM CASEINATE?

Actus Nutrition’s calcium caseinate  is a premium protein ingredient valued for its smooth texture, excellent solubility, and neutral taste. It delivers both nutritional and functional value, supporting clean-label formulations in a wide range of food and beverage products. Frequently used in dairy-style drinks, soups, sauces, and performance nutrition, it enhances mouthfeel, improves stability, and helps developers achieve a rich, consistent product experience across a variety of formulations.

What applications can calcium caseinate be featured in?

This casein-based protein performs especially well in high-protein systems and applications that require emulsification, fat absorption, or foam stability. It is commonly incorporated into whipped toppings, baked goods, confectionery, ice cream, and powdered dietary supplements. Its ability to stabilize air cells and emulsify fats helps maintain a smooth, homogeneous product throughout processing and shelf life.

 

What are some product formulation considerations when using calcium caseinate? 

While it dissolves readily once dispersed, this ingredient can present hydration challenges if introduced too rapidly into liquid systems. For optimal solubility and performance, it is best added gradually. Pre-blending with other dry components or using a pre-wetting step can also improve dispersion. Compared to other milk proteins, calcium caseinate plays a stronger role as a functional component rather than a source of nutritional fortification. It is particularly effective in formulations where viscosity, stability, and texture are central to the product’s success.
