Raw Milk On average, 400 milk tankers deliver fresh real California milk to our customers’ facilities every day. Unpasteurized, raw milk is transported in state-inspected 6,000-gallon food grade tanker trucks to our customers’ facilities for processing into products like pasteurized and bottled fluid milk. Condensed Milk Our condensed line of processed fluid milk is the liquid co-product when water is removed through evaporation and pasteurization from Grade A raw milk. Grade A pasteurized condensed milk products are ideal for processors manufacturing dairy products, such as yogurt, cheese and ice cream. Show Condensed Milk Options Skim Milk When butterfat is separated from raw milk, the liquid product that remains is skim milk.
