“From All-American flavors like vanilla to the tongue-tingling taste of spicy-sweet flavors, flavors, extracts and maskers take us on a flavor journey.
Priscila Guerrero, business development specialist, LATAM, at Global Organics, notes the Cambridge, Mass.-based food ingredient company cares about providing long-term solutions.
“Artificial flavor enhancers can be cheaper than the natural enhancers, but the health risks are there. This is why they are regulated. We really focus on the organic ingredients as this is not only good for our health, but also has a good impact on the environment,” Guerrero says. “Organic vanilla is a natural flavor enhancer that can be used in many products. For example, in chocolate bars, it enhances the cocoa flavor naturally and therefore less added sugar can be used. A double win!”
