FOOD FLAVOURING FACTS

We enjoy food using a combination of our 5 senses when creating our product,

These 5 factors should be considered for the full food experience.

(Seeing, Smelling, Tasting, Hearing & Touching)

Seeing

Colors, shapes, sizes.

(Yellow and orange are colors that make people feel hungry. The color red is associated with emotion and passion).

Tasting

Our taste buds are only capable of perceiving sweetness, sourness, saltiness, bitterness & umami. However, taste do not differentiate the unique aroma of each ingredient. Savouring & chewing food permits volatiles to be released into the nasal cavity so they can be detected.

Smelling

Most of what you taste is perceived from smell.

Between 75 and 95 % of what we think of as taste actually results from the stimulation of the olfactory receptors in the nose instead, that is why food is often tasteless when you have a nose block. We often smell food before we see them because aromatic compounds can travel to your nose at a distance, this is why you are often attracted to bakeries and fried chicken.

Hearing & Touching

Chewing textures like crunchiness, sliminess, softness completes the food experience and increase satisfaction.

STORING LIQUID FOOD FLAVOURING

Most food flavourings have a shelf life of 12 months at room temperature.

Food flavouring should be kept at optimal storage condition

(Refrigeration, sealed & kept away from light) for best performing quality.

Not all food flavourings are created equal, like food ingredients, some food flavouring will go through ageing over time, during this time, it’s profile matures, and the aroma will lose some of its sharp and pungent top volatile notes, but strengthen in its body.

Likewise, wine and finely aged cheese and beef.

USING LIQUID FOOD FLAVOURING IN APPLICATIONS

Liquid food flavourings are concentrated and used in small volumes in food products, which makes them more cost-effective!

Many food ingredients are seasonal, depending on the climate conditions of growth, hence, the quality and taste of food changes accordingly. Utilising liquid food flavouring in your product helps to keep your product taste more consistent.

Recommended dosages are meant to be used as a guideline. Flavour profile will vary depending on its dosage & the types of application. Different flavours perform differently in different food matrices. Let us help you fine-tune and find the perfect combinations for your products.

Food creativity is endless, and we can help you in your journey to create the perfect taste for your palettes and enhance the aromatic perception of your food.

Food is science, where every ingredient reacts with one another differently, hence we recommend that you add the flavour to your product and taste it for yourself.

Backed by years of research and technology, we offer inventive solutions for your products. The world of food flavouring is not simply good aroma, its possibilities expands with our persistent passion to study how flavours behave in different food matrices. Solutions such as sugar enhancers can increase perception of sweetness, and mouthfeel enhancers can cause a product to have a richer sensation on the tongue. Masking of unpleasant notes in artificial sugars, meat analogues and other food matrices are part of what we do to help improve your products too. If you have a specific dietary restriction, or any other specific request, we aim to provide you with solutions for your regulatory needs. If you wish to fine-tune the profile of flavour or have a creative idea you would like to execute, feel free to connect with us!
