NEXT: Commoditization and Food/Flavor Safety

Markus Lipp on why adulteration is not a quality issue, but a safety concern.

Consumption of flavoring materials as food ingredients and food additives

The basis of quantitative food identity is the consumption of unavoidable and harmless quantities of flavoring materials in the form of traditional foods. Therefore a comprehensive study is needed of the quantitative occurence of flavoring materials in all common foods, such as fruits, vegetable, meat, seafood, cereals, and spices.

Flavors for Snack-Food Applications

The overall snack-food product development process is described here, from concept selection through seasoning development, consumer testing and commercialization.

Allergens can sneak in from an ingredient supplier, from not properly cleaning equipment during a changeover from one allergen-containing material to another, from a labeling error or from a new supplier who has not been properly vetted.

Why Food Safety of Flavors Matters to Flavor Companies

Why and how flavor companies need to follow well-accepted food safety practices in their development and manufacture of flavor systems.

Labeling Vanilla Flavorings and Vanilla-Flavored Foods in the U.S.

Vanilla flavorings are the only flavorings subject to a federal standard of identity. An understanding of the vanilla standard and the general flavoring labeling regulations is necessary to properly label vanilla flavorings and the foods to which they are added.

Spray Drying of Food Flavors— IV. The Influence of Flavor Solvent on Retention of Volatile Flavors

This is the fourth paper in our series studying flavor retention during spray drying of artificial flavors. In this paper, we address the problem of selecting a suitable flavor solvent system for spray drying.

Spray Drying of Food Flavors - 1.Theory of Flavor Retention

Research to date suggests that optimum flavor retention may be obtained by using as high infeed solids as possible, raising infeed temperature if this permits higher infeed solids levels, choosing a carrier which favors flavor retention and operating the dryer at optimum inlet and exit air temperatures. These suggestions are based on research which has generally dealt with a study of a limited number of volatiles and flavor carriers seldom or never used in the flavor industry.

Inside Flavors: Real Time Volatile Flavor Release Monitoring and its Flavor/Food Application Using Proton Transfer Reaction Mass Spectrometry

Understanding how aroma compounds interact with and are released from simple and complex foods. Flavors and fragrances usually are complex mixtures of molecules with different physical properties, including volatility, fat solubility and sensorial characteristics, covering a wide spectrum of threshold values. They are usually present in natural extracts or final products at levels in the order of ppb to ppm.

Evolutionary Trends in Food and Flavors

There will, undoubtedly, be a need for modification of the original concepts in developing internationally acceptable products. Consumers are willing to try new taste sensations, new flavors and new foods as never before.

The Flavor of Food—How Natural is Natural?

The purpose of this study is to compare the flavoring materials formed during food processing with their synthetic counterparts that are used as flavor additives.

Consumption Ratio and Food Predominance of Flavoring Materials

The Consumption Ratio has been generally accepted as a valuable tool for the setting of priorities for the safety evaluation of flavoring substances. The general understanding of its significance is inspiring flavor researchers tn publish the results of their work in a form which clearly relates the quantity of the substances identified to the food.

For the Love of Food: The Path Forward for Proactive Food and Flavor Safety

As the industry evolves to embrace food safety standards and mitigate hazards, food and ingredient manufacturers can take steps to outpace regulations and protect their brands.

Consumption Ratio and Food Predominance of Flavoring Materials

The Consumption Ratio was introduced in 1981 to put the need for safety evaluation of flavoring substances in proper perspective against the assumed safety of traditional food consumption.

Spray Drying of Food Flavors—V

Factors influencing shelf-life of encapsulated orange peel oil. This study investigated tbe influence of trace pro-oxidants (e.g., copper and iron), surface oil, entrapped air and absolute density on the shelf-life of spray dried single fold orange peel oil.

The Application of Flavor in Food Processing

Within each segment of the food and related industries there are technologists whose responsibility it is to ensure that the end products are correctly flavored to satisfy customer expectations, technological needs and legal requirements. To parallel this, the flavor industry itself employs technical service experts to give advice on flavoring choice and applications. It is the close collaboration between flavor manufacture and the user industries which ensures the present high standards of our manufactured food products and ensures that flavorings are used under optimum conditions.

Spray Drying of Food Flavors. Ill. Optimum Infeed Concentrations for the Retention of Artificial Flavors

The practical aspects of this work are that each flavor encapsulating material will exhibit an optimum concentration for flavor retention. The optimum concentrations determined in our study may not necessarily be the same as in a production facility. This would have to be determined using actual production equipment. If the retention is limited by the ability to atomize, this factor is equipment dependent. It does appear worthwhile to make this determination, however.
