Reflections of a Retired Flavorist Before He Forgets: Raspberry

More recently the trend towards “natural" and the loose interpretation of "natural" has modified the standard for raspberry flavor. For example, the original Firmenich flavor contained important ingredients not yet considered or available in a “natural” form. Also the green notes, of importance to natural raspberry flavor, were not in that original flavor. As of this writing, we have not seen a natural raspberry ketone, but if and when it arrives, the target for raspberry will once again change.

Reflections of a Retired Flavorist Before He Forgets: Strawberry

The demand for “natural flavors and the availability of “natural ingredients (such as ethyl butyrate, ethyl 2-methyl butyrate, diacetyl, ethyl caproate, hexyl and hexenyl compounds, the aliphatic acids, methyl cinnamate, maltol and furaneol and yC1O and C11 lactones) enable the flavorist to produce a “natural strawberry with a minimum of juice or fruit extractives. It also verifies that Aldehyde C16 is not a necessary ingredient.

Reflections of a Retired Flavorist Before He Forgets: Peach

Until the natural sulfur components, like p-hydroxy phenyl butanone, are available in a "natural" form, today's flavorist can create more realistic peach and raspberry flavors than "natural" ones.

Reflections of a Retired Flavorist Before He Forgets: Cocoa

In keeping with today’s irrational demand for natural products and the even more ridiculous activity of our industry, supplying these in ever mom concentrated form, the use of natural amino acids and sugars to obtain a natural reacted end-product plus added pure vanilla, cocoa distillate or extract, and traces of essential oils (such as Bois de Rose for its Iinalool content ) results in quite satisfactory, less expensive and more concentrated “natural coca or chocolate flavors.
