Vanilla Sustagen makes a pleasant milk powder alternative in hot chocolate or oaty breakfasts.

I've always used milk powder, but do find that if you get cheap and nasty milk powder, its going to taste terrible every time.

There are some milk powders, if mixed, that taste no different to the full cream milk that you get in the supermarkets. Just need to test a few and pick whats best.

As for other alternatives, the sachets can be good, but take up more space than standard coffee. You can also try the tubes of condensed milk and coffee by Nestle. They taste fairly good (for what they are), but if you're a heavy coffee drinker (like I am), then a tube wont last long at all.

The problem here is that Woolies and Coles only sell milk powder in 1kg bags these days!

I like Nescafe Vanilla Latte cafe menu sachets 10 to a box and they don't need milk ( sugar as required ) . For chocolate i have been trying Paul's chocolate powder just add water hot or cold 5 teaspoons , just the thing when you are caffeine ed out need need something different . For soup it's HEINZ squeeze and stir big red sachets . It's all in the flavor . :D
