Sweet milk is fresh milk as opposed to sour milk which people used to make cakes with, and buttermilk. It has no added sugar and is what you buy to drink every day. It is just called milk today.
Lilac is correct. Sweet milk is a termed used many years ago, when many families used everything they had, & when milk became 'soured'or 'clabbered', instead of pitching it, they added it in baking. Some recipes still call for it today. "Sweet' milk, is simply fresh, unsoured milk.
The term sweet milk simply means regular milk as opposed to buttermilk.
Thank you so much for asking! I have wondered this for many years but never thought to ask! And thank you Moseley3 for giving a good simple and direct answer!
Sweet milk is milk with cream. The cream floated on top of fresh milk. when mixed together it made what they called sweet milk. Yes it makes great cakes
What is sweet milk
It's just regular fresh milk, not buttermilk or milk that has started to sour. Don't use sweetened condensed milk as that is much sweeter and thicker.
