Chemical Characterization of Vanilla pompona Scheide, Part II

Vanilla pompona is resistant to climate change and diseases, and therefore is preferred for hybridization with V. planifolia. Its chemical characterization was carried out in a series of experiments, described in this second of four parts.

The curing of ripe, green vanilla beans convert a generally unflavored pod into the universally recognized and popular aromatic product.

Vanilla Bean Extraction: Old Procedures Needing a Makeover

Part 1 of 2: Exploring regulations and vanilla extraction methods.

Reflections of a Retired Flavorist Before He Forgets: Vanilla—A Requiem?

As I look back—covering parts of seven decades—no flavor has been surrounded with more controversy than vanilla. Vanilla was once considered to be number one in popularity but I very much doubt if it is still the favorite.

Adding Complexity to Beverage Fruit Flavors: 2-Methyl Butyl 2-Methyl Butyrate

Many fruit flavors contain significant quantities of aliphatic esters. Analyses often reveal frightening complexities, like finding more than 100 different aliphatic esters in strawberries. The two most common approaches to tackling this daunting problem, however, lie at opposite ends of the creative spectrum.

Part 1: The Microstructure of and Compartmentation in the Ripe Vanilla Bean

This paper is the first in a two-part series on vanilla curing. This installment considers the vanilla bean tissue microstructure and cellular compartmentation of key enzymes and chemical actives in relation to their potential for vanillin and flavor formation in the ripe bean.

Maple flavors cover a multitude of sins and acetoin works well in all of them. Wright recommends using around 200 ppm.

Acetoin in Dairy, Fruit, Savory, Brown and Alcoholic Flavors

Dairy flavors are the most obvious focus, but acetoin plays an important role in virtually every flavor category.

In the brown flavor category the cost issues of dairy resurface in a more moderate form—1,000 ppm level is also great in caramel and toffee profiles.

delta-Dodecalactone in Dairy, Fruit, Savory, Brown & Other Flavors

John Wright shares how delta-dodecalactone is more versatile than a flavorist may expect.

A Natural and a Pod: Commonalities in Vanilla and Tea Processing

Shared chemistry, biochemistry and processing in tea leaf and vanilla pod.

2,5-Dimethyl 4-ethoxy 3(2H)-furanone, sometimes called strawberry ethyl ether, combines something of the candy character of furaneol with a very distinct strawberry note.

2,5-Dimethyl 4-ethoxy 3(2H)-furanone in Berry, Tropical and Other Fruit Flavors

This interesting combination of notes gives the ingredient an extraordinarily wide range of uses within the fruit flavor category.

An attractive addition of 2-ethyl-4-methylthiazole to authentic pistachio flavors is 50 ppm.

2-Ethyl-4-Methylthiazole in Brown, Savory and Fruit Flavors

2-Ethyl-4-methylthiazole has some roasted aspects, but it is quite specifically nutty and cocoa in character.

The Role of Lipids in Vanilla Beans and their Transformation during Curing

A review of the effects, including flavor formation.

Raw materials: Chemical and Biochemical Changes Occurring During the Traditional Madagascan Vanilla Curing Process

Effects on the sensory qualities of cured beans.

Coumarin in Plants and Fruits: Implication in Perfumery

Is there a risk for perfumers and flavorists to use coumarin in their formulations? The purpose of this article is to give users adequate information to answer to this question.

iso-Valeric acid makes a subtle, but very useful, contribution to hazelnut flavors at 100 ppm.

iso-Valeric Acid in Dairy, Brown, Nut, Savory, Alcoholic Drink & Fruit Flavors

The profile of iso-valeric is very much stereotypical of the primary cheese odor, without any hint of the faint goaty character that starts to creep into the series of aliphatic acids from six carbon atoms upwards.

Part 2. The Role of Plant Microstructure, Compartmentation and Senescence in Vanilla Curing

This review is the second in a two-part series. It considers the effect of the senescence process and the decompartmentation that occurs as a consequence of microstructure disassembly of the vanilla pod.

My goal is always to create a flavor that mimics Mother Nature as closely as I can.

9 Little Used Aroma Chemicals to Create A Luxurious Vanilla Flavor, According to A Principal Flavorist

Can’t we be more creative and show vanilla some love? Why yes, people! Yes, we can.

2-Heptanone has a similar, but even more powerful, blue cheese note than 2-nonanone.

2-Heptanone in Dairy, Fruit, Savory and Brown Flavors

2-Heptanone features front and center in blue cheese flavors, but it also makes a positive contribution in a veritable smorgasbord of other profiles.
