Applications 

1. High Potency Flavour Enhancer: Four to six times more potent than maltol, it lets formulators reach a full sweet caramel impact at very low use levels, and its taste profile at 70 ppm reads as sweet burnt cotton candy with jammy strawberry notes.


2. Confectionery, Baked Goods And Dairy Applications: Delivers the caramellic, cotton candy and cooked sugar notes that characterise candy, baked goods, cereals, chocolate milk and dairy products, and it is dosed at parts per million rather than percent.


3. Beverage Flavouring: Used to build and round out sweet, fruity and caramel profiles in beverages, and it works alongside synthetic berry and citrus flavourings to give the drink a fuller, longer lasting sweet impression.


4. Fragrance And Perfumery Ingredient: Its odour type is caramellic, and a five percent solution reads as sweet caramel, jam and strawberry, so it is used at low levels in perfumery and as the sweet note in flavour and fragrance compounds.


5. Flavour Masking: Used to mask or minimise undesirable flavours and off notes.
