Disclosed are whey protein-containing granules which can dissolve a whey protein into water without forming insoluble lumps thereby making a solution containing the dissolved whey protein clear without turbidity, and a method for producing the same. The whey protein-containing granules are composed of a polyglycerin fatty acid ester having HLB of 13 to 18 and containing lauric acid as a constituent fatty acid. As the polyglycerin fatty acid ester, for example, monolauric acid decaglycerin ester or monolauric acid pentaglycerin ester may be used.
