About whole milk

Whole milk is cow's milk that retains its natural fat content (around 3.5–4%), making it richer than reduced-fat varieties. It has a creamy, slightly sweet flavour with a smooth mouthfeel. In cooking and baking, whole milk adds richness, body, and moisture to sauces, custards, batters, and baked goods. Its fat content helps create tender crumb structure in cakes and contributes to smooth, silky textures in soups and cream sauces.
