FAQ
How does it get creamy without much fat?
The creaminess comes primarily from milk proteins (like whey or casein) and sometimes added thickeners, which provide a smooth mouthfeel without relying on high fat content.
Is it safe for diabetics?
While it has no added sugar, it still contains carbohydrates (12.88g per 100g) from milk and other ingredients. Individuals with diabetes should account for these carbs within their meal plan and monitor blood sugar response.
What gives it the orange flavor?
The orange flavor typically comes from natural or artificial orange flavoring, and sometimes real orange juice or juice concentrate, which also contributes to the carbohydrate content.
