Flavours
Making Flavours
Flavours (sometimes known as Essences) are added to foods to enhance taste and aroma. Flavours may contain natural or synthetic ingredients or a blend of both. Flavours are made using a carrier, natural ingredients and synthetic aromatic chemicals. Natural Flavouring ingredients may include essential oils and resins from fruits, spices, woods, leaves, gums, flowers.
Scentral Flavours and Fragrances, as a member of the International Organisation of the Flavour Industry (IOFI), follow the IOFI Code of Practice which contains revised definitions of flavours. The definitions are taken from the current Codex Guidelines on the Use of Flavourings (CAC/GL 66-2008). Therefore, we offer Natural Flavours and Flavours (synthetic – formally known as Nature Identical and Artificial).

Spray Dried Flavours
Scentral is one of the few Australian manufacturers of Spray Dried flavours. Our concentrated Spray Dried flavours are encapsulated by the spray drying process making this powdered form highly suited to high-temperature manufacturing processes. The spray drying process protects our flavourings, by encapsulating the flavour with a protective outer layer that can withstand a wide range of heat conditions whilst still maintaining the flavours complexities and flavour profile. In doing so, it extends the shelf life of the product and its ability to withstand further processing. Applications include dry premixes, baked goods, cereals, protein powders, nutraceuticals, jelly crystals and anywhere where the powdered product is required.
