Non-dairy coffee creamer

Fat-free coffee creamer is a liquid ingredient primarily used to soften and add creaminess to coffee without adding extra fats or calories. It is a dairy or plant-based product specially formulated to mimic the texture and flavor of traditional cream, but with minimal or no fat content, making it an ideal option for those seeking light or low-calorie alternatives.

This type of creamer originated from the evolution of modified dairy products, developed to meet a growing demand for healthy alternatives in the daily consumption of coffee worldwide. In Latin America, its use has become popular in recipes and beverages where the goal is to maintain the creaminess of coffee without increasing its fat content.

Properties: fat-free coffee creamer provides smoothness and texture to coffee without significantly altering its caloric value. It generally provides proteins and carbohydrates in moderate amounts and is low in fats and cholesterol. Additionally, it is often rich in calcium if it is dairy-based and, in some cases, is fortified with vitamins. Its low-fat content makes it ideal for balanced diets and for people with fat intake restrictions.

Synonyms in Latin American Spanish: it is also known as light coffee creamer, skimmed cream, low-fat cream, or simply fat-free cream, depending on the country and region.

In cooking recipes, fat-free coffee creamer is perfect for preparing hot beverages, creamy desserts, and other preparations where the goal is to reduce the amount of fat while maintaining a smooth and pleasant texture.
