Taste modulation and protein masking solutions
With its “Sweet Solutions”, Sensient Flavors supports sugar reduction concepts in various beverage, bakery and dairy applications. The range helps to maintain the full sensorial perception in the end product, even if sugar is significantly reduced. Without the need to change the labelling, Sensient Sweet Solutions can help to create pleasant sugar reduced still or carbonated drinks, from tea-based to fruit-based and many more, as well as a wide range of sweet products such as cookies, wafers and biscuits and yoghurt.
As the major trend in the food industry, protein has many benefits and helps to enhance the nutritional profile of numerous products. But whether it’s sports drinks, diet shakes or snack bars, the main challenge in product development is to mask the unpleasant taste that many proteins deliver. The experts at Sensient have developed protein masking solutions that work with proteins from all sources as well as with protein blends. Using these solutions, manufacturers can improve the taste profile of their products by eliminating off-notes and even improving the unpleasant mouthfeel that some proteins display. The proprietary masking technologies allow for natural, non-GMO, allergen-free and kosher labelling – always in line with the customer’s products and needs.
