PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a concentrated milk-like composition, causing no coagulation or scorch when subjected to heat treatment such as HTST sterilization or UHT sterilization (ultra high temperature instantaneous sterilization), having favorable preservative performance, and having flavor and full-bodied taste nearly equal to those of cow milk even when diluted five times or more.SOLUTION: This concentrated milk-like composition contains a sweetener and milky whey minerals, the calcium content in the solid of which is under 2 mass%, wherein the milky whey mineral is contained over 5 mass% as a solid. Preferably the concentrated milk-like composition has a protein content of under 2 mass%. Further the sweetener is a mixture of glucose and galactose, and the sweetener is contained by 9 mass% or more at the sucrose conversion as the degree of sweetness. The composition contains milk raw material having a content of phosphatide in the milk-derived solid of 2 mass% or more.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】HTST殺菌やUHT殺菌(超高温瞬間殺菌)処理等の加熱処理時に凝集物やコゲの発生がなく、保存性が良好で、5倍以上に希釈した場合でも牛乳と同程度の風味とコク味を有する、濃縮牛乳状組成物を提供すること。【解決手段】甘味料、及び、固形分中のカルシウム含量が2質量%未満である乳清ミネラルを含有し、該乳清ミネラルを、固形分として5質量%超含有することを特徴とする濃縮牛乳状組成物。この濃縮牛乳状組成物は、好ましくは、蛋白質含量が2質量%未満であり、上記甘味料が、ブドウ糖とガラクトースの混合物であり、上記甘味料を甘味度としてのショ糖換算で9質量%以上含有し、乳由来の固形分中のリン脂質の含有量が2質量%以上である乳原料を含む。【選択図】なし
