Egg powder is powdered egg. It is also called dried egg. It is produced by drying fresh eggs. Egg powder is made through spray drying whole eggs, egg whites, or egg yolks. Dried eggs have a longer shelf life, are easier for storing and handling, cost less for shipping, and are more uniform than fresh eggs. Uses of egg powder include bakery products, confections, noodles, pastas, mayonnaise and sauces, processed foods, baby food and institutional food service. It provides high-quality protein, vitamins and minerals, as well as convenience, safety, and standardization in commercial and emergency food supplies of all types.

Egg powder production requires sourcing eggs from poultry farms, installation and commissioning of equipment for washing, breaking, filtering, pasteurizing, homogenizing, spray drying and packing. Cold storage, clean processing rooms, quality control laboratories, food and food quality laws must be in place with quality egg suppliers, refrigerated transport and electricity, water and trained technicians as essential components in the requirements. To produce, one must comply with HACCP, ISO, FSSAI and FDA. Investing varies with processing capacity, level of automation, egg type, and packing to retail or industrial markets.

IMARC Group's report, titled "Egg Powder Manufacturing Plant Project Report 2025: Industry Trends, Plant Setup, Machinery, Raw Materials, Investment Opportunities, Cost and Revenue," provides a complete roadmap for setting up an egg powder manufacturing plant setup.
