The present invention provides masking compositions that include a lower alkyl carboxylic acid, e.g. acetic acid. Also provided is a masking composition that includes (a) a lower alkyl carboxylic acid (e.g. acetic acid), a warming sensate (e.g. vanillin or vanillyl butyl ether) and/or a cooling sensate (e.g. menthol or isopulegol).

Flavour modifying composition comprising one or more specific flavour modifying compounds, product comprising said flavour modifying composition, use of said flavour modifying composition for modifying taste perception in foodstuffs and beverages and method of improving taste perception in a foodstuff or beverage comprising adding said flavour modifying composition to said foodstuff or beverage.

Rapidly dissolving flavoring composition concentrates are provided. The flavoring composition concentrates have a flavor, a solvent system, a flavor carrier system, and a densifier. The densifier is an acid modifier present in an amount such that it optimizes the rate of dispersion of the concentrate in water.

The present invention relates to spray-dried compositions capable of retaining volatile compounds and methods relating to the same. The present invention also relates to the powders produced by such methods.

A composition containing at least one isomeric alkadienyl ester in an amount effective to impart a fragrance or flavor to the composition. A fragrance or flavor composition containing at least one isomeric alkadienyl ester in an amount effective to impart a fragrance or flavor to the composition. A consumer product containing the fragrance or flavor composition having at least one isomeric alkadienyl ester in an amount effective to impart a fragrance or flavor to the composition. A method of imparting a fragrance or flavor to a consumer product by adding to the consumer product a fragrance or flavor composition containing at least one isomeric alkadienyl ester in an amount effective to impart a fragrance or flavor to the consumer product.

Compositions which are fragrant and contain at least a member set culled from a library of compositions, each being comprised of sub-combinations of selected terpenes. Fragrances that mimic that of various states of organic and synthetic aromatics including products, processes and those from non-combusted plant products, among other things, uniquitous products, processes, medicinals, and related moieties leverage databases of all known terpene groupings are offered for consideration, and have been provided, according to the instant teachings.

The present disclosure generally provides amide compounds, and the use of such compounds and related compounds as flavor modifiers. In some aspects, the disclosure provides compositions that include such amide compounds, such as compositions that include such amide compounds and one or more additional compounds, such as a sweetener, a salt, a glutamate, an arginate, a purinic ribonucleotide, and the like. In some other aspects, the disclosure provides methods of reducing or eliminating the amount of sweetener, salt, glutamate, or arginate in a food or beverage product.

A flavor composition comprising at least one compound that modulates, increases and/or enhances the activity of a GPR92 receptor that can be used to enhance palatability of pet food products is described herein. Also disclosed herein are methods for identifying said compounds.

Rapidly dissolving flavoring composition concentrates are provided. The flavoring composition concentrates have a flavor, a solvent system, a flavor carrier system, and a densifier. The densifier is an acid modifier present in an amount such that it optimizes the rate of dispersion of the concentrate in water.

The invention relates to terpene-derived acids and esters thereof as well as to processes for synthesizing them.
