Flavorchem (Downers Grove, IL) has created a new collection of citrus flavors designed for use in immune health products. The company points to the growing popularity of citrus flavors as consumers associate these flavors with immune support.
The new Citrus Vacation collection features six flavors derived from what the company describes as “more sophisticated varietals,” including those with global appeal. The flavors are: Fresh Calamansi Lime, Fruity Kumquat, Juicy Blood Orange, Sweet Tangerine, Yuzu Citrus, and Zesty Key Lime. The flavors are vegan, kosher, non-GM, and can be labeled as “natural.”
In a press release, Niki Hernandez, the company’s R&D manager and senior flavorist, explained, “Citrus flavors, more so than any other flavors, need to be processed in different ways to be suitable in different applications. Citrus Vacation, our first collection of specially formulated citrus varietals, can be optimized for any food or beverage application.”
