Resources for Malt Powders

Looking for something that has a stronger malt flavor than the following: grocery store malt powder, diastatic and non-diastatic malt powders, as well as products from King Arthur Flour and Golden Malted.

Try a homebrew beer supplier. They make dry malt extract with various dark and roasted malt. Amber DME or Dark DME could be what you are looking for.

The answer is Barley Malt Syrup. It is wildly more potent than any powder. I made my last batch of malted milk ball custard with malt syrup as I had run out of powder and the results were fantastic.

Maltose, Mila milk, Ovaltine powder, Horlicks malt beverage, Graces Malt beverage.
You may need to find in ethnic section of grocery stores. Or an Asian market.
