Eagle Brand

A: Eagle Brand® products are nationally distributed throughout the United States at your local grocery store. If you cannot find Eagle Brand® in your grocery store, please notify the store manager. Q: I opened my can of Eagle Brand®, and the color is darker than usual ...A: Eagle Brand® is made with rich and creamy all natural ingredients. First, y... ou will want to verify the production date and decide if your can is within its freshness date. As Eagle Brand® ages the product may begin to change color and thicken. If your can is within its freshness date, it is still safe to use and will not affect recipe performance. Q: What is the difference between sweetened condensed milk and evaporated milk? Eagle Brand® Sweetened Condensed Milk is completely different from evaporated milk. Evaporated milk cannot be substituted for Eagle Brand® recipes. You will see that we indicate not to use evaporated milk in Eagle Brand® recipes. We note this because while evaporated milk is okay in certain types of recipes calling for evaporated milk, it does not perform the same as sweetened condensed milk and if used can actually spoil a recipe calling for Eagle Brand® Sweetened Condensed Milk. To better understand and see the real difference between Evaporated Milk and Sweetened Condensed Milk try this simple test. In one bowl, add lemon juice to some Evaporated milk and blend. You will see that the Evaporated Milk and lemon juice mixture curdles and separates. Now, try the same experiment in another bowl with Eagle Brand® Sweetened Condensed Milk and add lemon juice and blend. You will see that the Eagle Brand® and lemon juice when blended together form a velvety smooth mixture which will continue to thicken with further blending. Evaporated milk is intended for different types of recipes. In all Eagle Brand® recipes, only use Eagle Brand® Sweetened Condensed Milk. This lemon juice experiment is also an example of why Eagle Brand® makes such light and fluffy cheesecakes.Read More
