The invention describes products, uses thereof, compositions thereof, and methods to prepare products formed from Maillard reaction products from a sugar donor and/or sweet tea extracts, stevia extracts, swingle (mogroside) extracts, one or more sweet tea extract components, one or more steviol glycosides, one or more mogrosides, one or more glycosylated sweet tea glycosides, one or more glycosylated steviol glycosides or one or more glycosylated mogrosides and an amine donor/reactant.

An apparatus and method are provided for storing and dispensing into a liquid a soluble substance, such as a flavoring, a body fuel, a nutritional supplement, a stimulant, a relaxant, an alcohol neutralizer, or a medical drug. A useful application of the subject invention includes a lime flavoring held by a gelatinous artificial lime wedge stored with a beer bottle or can, or attached to a 6-pack or 12-pack carton. The artificial lime wedge may be retrieved from a protective covering and acted upon so it mixes the lime flavoring into the beer when it is inserted into the beer bottle or can. Rather than needing to buy and store a perishable natural lime, and cut it up, an artificial lime wedge may be stored for an extended period of time with a beer vessel and placed in functional contact with the beer at time of consumption.

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.

Fragrance or flavour mixtures containing (i) (E)-2-methyl-but-2-endicarboxylic acid diesters, (ii) (Z)-2-methyl-but-2-endicarboxylic acid diesters and (iii) 2-methylenebutanedicarboxylic acid diesters with a fruity, pear-like note are provided. Further provided are a process for the preparation of these fragrances or flavourings or fragrance or flavouring mixtures, and the use of the fragrance or flavouring mixtures to produce a fruity, pear-like fragrance or flavour or for the preparation of a fragrance mixture or a perfume oil, cosmetic agent, application agent, detergent and cleaning agent, foodstuff, animal feed or pharmaceutical product, as well as the products made therefrom which contain the fragrance or flavouring mixtures in a sensory effective amount.

The present invention relates to a process for preparing of a food concentrate in which an aqueous starting solution from a foodstuff is concentrated by osmosis with a semi-permeable biomimetic membrane. In addition, the present invention relates to a food concentrate which can be produced by the process according to the invention, a food concentrate which is free of disturbing aroma components with an OAV (odour activity value)≥1 and which does not contain any solvent additives. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the use of the food concentrates and products comprising the food concentrate according to the invention.

Described herein are compounds that are able to generate oct-2-en-4-one and thus to provide a long-lasting or substantive strawberry odor to an environment. Also described herein is a method of imparting a long-lasting strawberry odor to surfaces, such as hard surfaces, fabric, skin or hair. Also described herein is a method of using said compounds in perfumery. Also described herein are perfuming compositions or perfumed articles including the compounds.
