Substitutes for Whole Milk Powder (Premium) in gelato

Whole milk powder (WMP) is spray-dried whole milk delivering roughly 27% milkfat, 26% protein and 38% lactose in a shelf-stable powder. In gelato it is a concentrated source of both fat and milk solids-non-fat (MSNF), used to enrich body, boost creaminess and fine-tune the freezing curve without adding water.
