Producing condensed milk from both animal milk and plant milk contains a significant difference not only in the chemical composition but also in our health benefit phenomenon. We developed functional condensed milk on five formulations of soy milk and coconut milk. Coconut milk contains 80% moisture, 4% protein, 13.63% fat, 2.37%. Soy milk contains 90.5% moisture, 3.02% protein, 2.24% fat. There are five formulations are A (soy milk: coconut milk=0:1), B (soy milk: coconut milk=1:0), C (soy milk: coconut milk=3:2), D (soy milk: coconut milk=2:3), E (soy milk: coconut milk=1:1). The formulations of five condensed milk were also analyzed for their chemical composition. The statistical analysis showed that formulation B (soy milk: coconut milk=1:0) is more acceptable than other formulations. The statistical analysis showed that, formulation B (soy milk: coconut milk=1:0) is more acceptable than other formulations. Then we did proximate analysis such as moisture content comparison, protein _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ *Corresponding author: Email: [email protected]; Ahmed et al.; AFSJ, 6(4): 1-7, 2019; Article no.AFSJ.45269 content comparison, fat content comparison, ash content comparison and color test (L*a*b* type) (Lightness analysis, Redness analysis and Yellowness analysis) of the five formulations of coconut milk and soy milk in order to observe which formulation would be the best for human purpose our plant produced condensed milk would be an effective alternative of cow’s milk condensed milk.

Here we developed functional condensed milk from soy The term functional food refers a modified food milk and coconut milk. The term “functional” as it that claims to improve health or well-being by applies to food has adopted a different providing benefit beyond that of the traditional signification-that of providing an additional nutrients it contains [1]. Condensed milk is not physiological benefit beyond that of meeting only a staple, but its super versatile in most basic nutritional needs [6]. The Institute of pantries. Plant milk produced condensed milk Medicine’s Food and Nutrition Board defined would be one of the best substitutes of animal functional foods as “any food or food ingredient milk produced condensed milk. that may provide a health benefit beyond the traditional nutrients it contains [7].
