Fluid Milk

Our California-based member-owners produce an average of 17 billion pounds of high-quality real California milk every year – enough to bottle about 2 billion gallons of milk.

Raw Milk

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.

Our customers use Grade A skim milk for bottled fluid sales, and in manufacturing a variety of cultured dairy products, such as yogurt and cottage cheese.

Cream

Our Grade A sweet cream is derived by separating milkfat from Grade A milk, then completing pasteurization. Transported to customer processing facilities in state-inspected food grade tanker trucks, CDI Grade A sweet cream is ideal for processors manufacturing dairy products like ice cream, sour cream and butter.
