In the method of the present invention for making a non-fat cream cheese product, a source of concentrated skim milk is introduced into a first mixer provided with agitation means. The skim milk is agitated as the skim milk is heated in the first mixer to a first predetermined elevated temperature. An emulsifier salt is added to the skim milk in the first mixer. After reaching the first predetermined elevated temperature, the skim milk is transferred to a second mixer provided with agitation means. A first gum is added to the heated skim milk in the second mixer to provide a thickened skim milk. The thickened skim milk is homogenized in a first homogenizing step. The homogenized skim milk is transferred to a third mixer provided with agitation means. A bulking agent and a second gum are added to the homogenized, thickened skim milk in the third mixer. The homogenized, thickened skim milk is agitated in the third mixer as the skim milk is heated to a second predetermined temperature to provide a nonfat cream cheese precursor. The non-fat cream cheese precursor is homogenized in a second homogenizing step to provide a nonfat cream cheese type product.
