Dairy ingredients, such as whey protein isolates and concentrates, whey powders, and demineralized whey, are used in bakery products to improve their texture and crumb strength. Whey proteins are extensively used to manufacture protein supplements. Whey protein is considered one of the significant sources of essential amino acids that help in improving muscle strength.
