Nutritional Value

Whenever you choose to add creamer to your cup of coffee, you must always bear in mind that the creamer will change the nutritional value of your beverage. Even if you add ‘just a little bit’ of creamer to your coffee, the calorie count of that beverage will increase. If you’re trying to lose weight or on a mission to eat healthy then adding creamer into your cup of coffee will undo almost all your efforts.

If you are counting your calorie intake then a creamer might be one of the highest contributors to your daily recommended count. To give your cup of coffee that beautiful thick consistency and to add a rich taste, creamer comprise milk fat in them. The calorie content may vary, based on the type of milk you have chosen. For example, if you use skim milk, or 1 percent milk or 2 percent milk, then the calorie content is significantly lower in comparison to whole milk, which contains more milk fat content.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with enjoying your favorite beverage – coffee with a splash of creamer in it. If you are trying to shed a few pounds, through eating healthy, then you can compensate for creamer with other alterations in your diet. Or you can even jog a few extra laps to burn off the calories!

Fat-Free For Real

Do not get fooled by the big print where the product is promoted as ‘fat-free’. Some creamers are also promoted as ‘low calorie’. Make sure to check the ingredients. Harmful ingredients such as hydrogenated oil affect your heart’s health by increasing bad cholesterol and lowering good cholesterol. Also, labeling rules allow companies to list less than half a gram of fat per serving as 0 grams. Additionally, the size of your cup determines the serving size/amount of creamer be added. For instance, if the cup holds 12 oz. of coffee, you will want to add at least two tablespoons of creamer to it.

Portion Control

Various brands have different packaging styles. Some offer a bulk packaging while some offer individual pods or capsules or sachets that can be used for one serving of coffee. Using a bulk packaged creamer is not only economic for the manufacturer and for you but it is also environmentally sustainable. However, in the case of a bulk packaged creamer, it is very easy to give in to temptation and lose control of the portion size. To find a middle ground, you can always opt for creamer that are individually packed in pods made with recyclable material. This is great if you are watching your calorie intake and excellent for the environment as well.

Mix & Match

The options for creamers are inexhaustive. However, if you have settled for one particular brand or flavor and you later change the brand of coffee or the type of roast, then it is likely that the creamer may not go well with the flavor of the coffee or the type of roast. You will need to experiment a bit with various creamer until you find the perfect creamer that matches the coffee.

If you are out of creamer or don’t have one that matches your coffee, you can always add milk or cream to your beverage to enhance the flavor and texture. For instance, Cow’s milk adds thickness and sweetness to your beverage. Buffalo milk can take your coffee experience to the next level with its inherent sweetness and creaminess. Goat’s milk goes with medium roasts and is easy to digest as well. You can also use whole milk, like baristas at coffee shops do. Whole milk is naturally sweet and reduces or eliminates the need for added sugar.

Alternatively, you can use skim milk which is the healthiest choice but it is not as creamy. If you don’t stock milk at home but have whipping cream or heavy cream in stock for dressing desserts, you can use those too. Be sure to use these creams in very little quantity as they are very thick and can overpower the texture and flavor of the coffee. For people who are lactose intolerant and those who prefer vegan alternatives, non-dairy kinds of milk, such are Soy milk, Cashew milk, Coconut milk, Almond milk, etc. are great options.

Powdered Creamers v/s Liquid Creamers

The primary difference between powdered creamer and liquid creamer is how they are stored. You can store powdered creamer in the pantry or kitchen cabinet or in any cool, dry place. You only need to make sure the lid of the jar is closed securely. In the case of liquid creamer, most of them need refrigeration after opening. There are a few shelf-stable options available like we have reviewed above. However, they are recommended in a high-volume environment such as an office as they don’t last longer than a month after the seal is opened.

Conduct A Survey

Some individuals are allergic to lactose. Some prefer to go with vegan options. There are some who are watching their weight and following a certain type of diet. Each of them needs caffeine to keep their energy levels high until the end of the workday. If you are an employer or in-charge of inventory management at an office, it is good to conduct a survey on how many and what type of creamer should be purchased.

You can broadly categorize the creamer choices as dairy, non-dairy and keto. Bulk purchased single-serving creamer pods, capsules or sachets are a great option as the contents are used immediately after opening the seal. These may work out to be cost-effective, and also won’t take up any space in the fridge. Though an office is a high-volume environment, it is still advisable to check the expiration date on the creamer package before purchasing.
