The Committee of Experts on Flavouring Substances is undertaking a major toxicological evaluation of the safety-in-use of over 600 natural flavouring source materials. Natural sources of flavourings are materials of vegetable or animal origin, whether or not they are normally consumed as food, from which flavourings may be obtained. This publication is the Committee's second report which provides evaluations of 60 source materials.

As the links between health and food additives come under increasing scrutiny, there is a growing demand for food containing natural rather than synthetic additives and ingredients. Natural food additives, ingredients and flavourings reviews the legislative issues relating to natural food additives and ingredients, the range of natural food additives and ingredients, and their applications in different product sectors.After an exploration of what the term 'natural' means in the context of food ingredients, part one focuses on natural food colourings, low-calorie sweeteners and flavour enhancers, followed by a consideration of natural antioxidants and antimicrobials as food ingredients. The book goes on to review clean label starches and proteins, the application of natural hydrocolloids as well as natural aroma chemicals and flavourings from biotechnology and green chemistry. Part two considers specific applications in different products. Natural ingredients in savoury food products, baked goods and alcoholic drinks are examined, as are natural plant extracts in soft drinks and milk-based food ingredients.With is distinguished editors and expert team of international contributors, Natural food additives, ingredients and flavourings is an invaluable reference tool for all those involved in the development and production of foods with fewer synthetic additives and ingredients. - Reviews the legislative issues relating to natural food additives and ingredients, the range of natural food additives and ingredients, and their applications in different product sectors - Explores what the term 'natural' means in the context of food ingredients, focusses on natural food colourings, low-calorie sweeteners and flavour enhancers, and considers natural antioxidants and antimicrobials as food ingredients - Examines natural ingredients in savoury food products, baked goods and alcoholic drinks, natural plant extracts in soft drinks and milk-based food ingredients

Ingredients and technologies which improve the flavour of food have always played a major role in food formulation. With increasing consumer demand for diet products, ready meals and natural ingredients, there is considerable pressure on food manufacturers to adapt ingredients in order to produce nutritious food. This important book provides professionals within the food industry with a comprehensive review of recent developments and research.The book begins with a comprehensive introduction followed by chapters on flavouring substances and the extraction of flavourings from natural sources. Chapters discuss technologies which improve flavour such as white biotechnology, the development of yeast flavour enhancers and the formulation of flavoursome low fat food. Further chapters cover techniques for flavour modification such as the controlled release of flavours, developments in sweeteners and masking agents for foods. The book concludes with chapters on the applications of new ingredients such as bitter blockers and masking agents.Modifying flavour in food provides a unique reference for manufacturers and scientists concerned with flavour modification. - Discusses adapting ingredients to meet consumer demand for nutritious food - Examines different technologies that improve flavour - Techniques for flavour modification are highlighted

Food flavour technology is of key importance for the food industry.Increasingly, food products must comply with legal requirements andconform to consumer demands for “natural” products, butthe simple fact is that, if foods do not taste good, they will notbe consumed and any nutritional benefit will be lost. Thereis therefore keen interest throughout the world in the production,utilisation and analysis of flavours. The second edition of this successful book offers a broadintroduction to the formulation, origins, analysis and performanceof food flavours, updating the original chapters and addingvaluable new material that introduces some of the newermethodologies and recent advances. The creation of flavourings is the starting point for the book,outlining the methodology and constraints faced byflavourists. Further constraints are considered in a chapterdealing with international legislation. The origins of flavours aredescribed in three chapters covering thermal generation,biogeneration and natural sources, keeping in mind the adjustmentsthat manufacturers have had to make to their raw materials andprocesses to meet the demand for natural products whilst complyingwith cost issues. Delivery of flavours using encapsulation orthrough an understanding of the properties of the food matrix isdescribed in the next two chapters, and this section is followed bychapters describing the different ways to analyse flavours usinginstrumental, modelling and sensory techniques. The book is aimedat food scientists and technologists, ingredients suppliers,quality assurance personnel, analytical chemists andbiotechnologists.

The demand for flavourings has been constantly increasing over the last years as a result of the dramatic changes caused by a more and more industrialised life-style: The consumer is drawn to interesting, healthy, pleasurable, exciting or completely new taste experiences. This book draws on the expert knowledge of nearly 40 contributors with backgrounds in both industry and academia and provides a comprehensive insight into the production, processing and application of various food flavourings. Established flavours produced commercially are summarized on a large scale. Methods of quality control and quality management are discussed in detail. The authors also focus on conventional and innovative analytical methods employed in this field and, last but not least, on toxicological, legal, and ethical aspects. Up-to-date references to pertinent literature and an in-depth subject index complete the book.

Consumer product acceptance and market success are dependent on the product's aroma/flavour. Flavours can be produced through chemical synthesis, microbial biocatalysis or by extraction from plants and animal sources. In recent times, chemical synthesis is not as desirable as this is not eco-friendly. So, in the food industry, natural ingredients are added to preparations for efficiency, softness or emotional appeal. Microbiology, bioengineering and biochemistry have enabled the elucidation of metabolic pathways; genetic engineering is expected to help in identifying metabolic blockages and creating novel high-yielding strains, while proteomics help in the application of analytical techniques. All these sciences, old and new, will lead to innovative ideas in the quest for better, sustainable and consumer-approved flavours and aromas.
