Study on the effect of the addition of whey in the sensorial quality of creamy dulce de leche

This study aimed to carry out an evaluation of the sensory profile of five samples of creamy dulce de leche made with different concentrations of whey powder or raw whey. The sensory attributes evaluated were appearance, general aspect, color, texture, and intention to purchase. The results were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey test and showed no significant difference between samples, and thus the use of whey powder or raw whey in the manufacture of creamy dulce de leche is a great alternative to the dairy industry since it enables the achievement of a product with nutritional quality, low cost evidencing the serum use in the food industry and as a nutritional supplement.
