A stock solution comprising a compound of formula (I) ##STR00001## Wherein R.sub.1 together with the carbonyl group to which it is attached is a residue of a carboxylic acid, and NR.sub.2R.sub.3, in which R.sub.3 is H or together with R.sub.2 and the N-atom to which they are attached, a 5-membered ring, is a residue of an amino acid, in particular a proteinogenic amino acid, ornithine, gamma-aminobutyric acid or beta alanine, or a 1-amino cycloalkyl carboxylic acid.

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.

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.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide: a novel oil-and-fat composition usable as an oil-and-fat sensation imparting material that can impart an oil-and-fat sensation to food and drink at a more natural and moderate intensity or can enhance or improve the oil-and-fat feeling in food and drink, and that can further enhance the flavor or texture that can be sensed in the oral cavity, such as a richness of taste, depth of taste, voluminous feeling, and feeling on the tongue; and a novel manufacturing method therefor. The present invention pertains to an oil-and-fat composition that has a moisture content of less than 1.0 mass % and that includes: component A that is three types of free fatty acids comprising free palmitic acid, free oleic acid, and free stearic acid; and component B that is two types of unsaturated aldehydes comprising 2-decenal and 2-octenal, wherein 0.002-0.2 parts by mass of component B is contained with respect to 100 parts by mass of component A, and at least 8.5 mass % of component A is contained with respect to the total mass of the composition.
