An Indulgence in Your Cup: Troubleshooting and Innovating Coffee Flavors
By: Jeb Gleason-Allured, Editor
Coffee flavor leader Flavor & Fragrance Specialties offers a look inside its labs, creative philosophy and the dynamic flavored coffee segment
“Specialty coffee is off the charts,” says Flavor & Fragrance Specialties (FFS) flavorist and lab manager Dianne Sansone. “Flavored coffee consumers are not [traditional] coffee consumers, so there is no cannibalization.” As the flavored coffee segment evolves, new profiles and technical challenges (masking off flavors from vitamins and other fortifications) proliferate.
Dunkin’ Donuts recently launched a skim version of its Coffee Coolatta beverage as part of its new campaign to provide consumers with healthy choices. Meanwhile, JavaFit has launched a new line of no-sugar functional RTD coffee beverages. Aimed at active consumers, those looking to be healthier or manage their weight, JavaFit’s offerings include Extreme Latte (fortified with green tea extract), Diet Latte (fortified with bitter orange extract Advantra Z), Focus Latte (fortified with α-GPC and multivitamins) and Immune Latte (fortified with Echinacea and multivitamins). Despite the ample fortification, the company claims its beverages have the flavor profile of “melted coffee ice cream.” Finally, Starbucks’ Cafe Mocha Truffles, noted for their indulgent qualities, were listed among the winners of Mintel’s 2008 Global New Products Database taste test. The technical hurdles and opportunities for innovation never cease.
