Carnation Malted Milk Powder, Original 13 oz tins — 2-pack, creamy toasted-malt flavor for shakes & baking

Carnation Malted Milk Original is a shelf-stable malted milk powder used to add a creamy, toasted-malt flavor to drinks, desserts, and baking.

This two-pack of 13 oz (368 g) tins offers a classic malted milk powder formulation from Carnation, designed for mixing into milkshakes, smoothies, cookie and cake batters, and warm beverages. The powder blends quickly for a velvety mouthfeel and adds a distinctive malted sweetness and faint toasted cereal note. It’s a pantry-ready option for home cooks, baristas, and bakers who want that traditional malt profile without needing fresh malt extract.

How do I use Carnation Malted Milk in drinks and shakes?

In drinks, the powder dissolves easily in cold or warm milk to provide that signature malted flavor and creamy texture. Start with one to three tablespoons per 8 ounces of milk and adjust to taste. For thicker shakes or malts, blend with ice cream and ice until smooth.

• Mix 1–3 tbsp with 8 fl oz milk for an instant malted beverage.
• Blend with 1–2 scoops ice cream for a classic malted milkshake.
• Stir into hot cocoa or coffee for a toasted malt twist.
• Use a small whisk or shaker bottle for lump-free mixing.

Can I bake with this malted milk powder?

Yes—malted milk powder can be folded into batters and doughs to impart a toasty-sweet depth and improve browning. Replace a portion of dry sugar or flour with malt powder or add it as an additional flavoring. It pairs well with chocolate, vanilla, and caramel baked goods.

• Add 1–4 tbsp to cookie or muffin batter for malted notes.
• Combine with cocoa for richer chocolate cakes or brownies.
• Sprinkle into pancake batter for a breakfast twist.
• Use as a flavor boost in frostings and milk-based custards.

What are the storage and shelf-life considerations?

The 13 oz metal tins are shelf-stable when kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, reseal tightly or transfer to an airtight container to preserve flavor and prevent clumping from humidity. Check the printed lot or best-by date for guidance on quality over time.

• Store in pantry at room temperature, away from heat and moisture.
• Reseal the tin or use an airtight jar after opening.
• Avoid prolonged exposure to humidity to reduce clumping.
• Use within manufacturer’s best-by period for best flavor.
