Cherry flavor is a food additive that mimics the aroma of natural cherry fruit. It is designed to provide a comprehensive flavor profile of sweetness, juiciness, freshness, slight acidity, and a unique kernel aroma, and is widely used in various sweet foods.
Flavor Characteristics: The core aroma of cherry flavor is a sweet, rich fruity scent, typically with notes similar to almond (kernel flavor), slight acidity, and a fresh berry undertone. The flavor is full-bodied, highly replicating the appealing taste of fresh or processed cherries, giving a juicy and sweet sensation.
Aroma Profile: Typical “sweet-sour” cherry fruit aroma with a slight almond-rose undertone; fresh top notes and rounded base notes.
Core Ingredients: Benzaldehyde (almond sweet aroma), heliotropin (bean-rose aroma), ethyl cinnamate (honeyed fruit-cherry), ionone (floral aroma), small amounts of esters (ethyl acetate, amyl acetate), and natural essential oils (almond oil, lemon oil, clove oil).
Properties: Liquid (water-soluble/oil-soluble), powder, or crystalline; heat resistant up to 180℃; water-soluble type is clear and transparent, oil-soluble type is pale yellow and volatile.
