Global Processed Cheese Market Size, Manufacturers, Opportunities and Forecast to 2030
Processed cheese (also known as prepared cheese, cheese product, plastic cheese, or cheese singles) is a food product made from cheese (and sometimes other, unfermented, dairy by-product ingredients); plus emulsifiers, saturated vegetable oils, extra salt, food colorings, whey or sugar. As a result, many flavors, colors, and textures of processed cheese exist.
Processed cheese is made from its natural counterpart, with salt, whey, and emulsifiers added. An emulsifier is added to prevent the surface of the cheese from forming tiny pools of fat on the surface, which is a tendency in its natural counterpart. These emulsifiers may include sodium phosphate, tartrate, citrate, or potassium phosphate. It is also these emulsifiers that allow processed cheese to melt smoothly without clumping and prevent the oils from separating when heated. This is why processed alternatives are usually smoother, creamier, and preferred for sauces and cooking.
Cheese analogues (more widely known as cheese alternatives) are products used as culinary replacements for cheese. These include vegan cheeses as well as some dairy products.
