ABSTRACT:
The invention is directed to a process for preparing reduced calorie, essentially lactose free, artificially sweetened yogurt. By utilizing ultrafiltration and enzymatic hydrolysis to reduce the lactose content, and by the addition of low calorie sweeteners, a yogurt product is produced with 60-70 calories per six ounces of product. Because the lactose level is reduced to less than 0.1% by weight, the product is amenable to lactose-intolerant individuals.
