Ethyl Maltol Flavor Food Grade Sweet Enhancer Sweet Caramel-Sugar Aroma Booster for Beverages Candy Dairy & Sauces

Ethyl Maltol Flavor is a specialized food-grade flavor enhancer and modifier, not a single-note flavoring. It is a white, crystalline powder with a powerful, sweet, caramel-like, and jammy fruity aroma at low concentrations. Its primary function is to significantly enhance, round out, and smooth the overall sweet perception and aromatic profile of other flavors in a formulation—particularly fruit, chocolate, vanilla, and caramel notes—while effectively masking undesirable harsh, bitter, or acidic off-notes. It works by modulating the sensory perception on the olfactory system.
