Döhler Develops New "Brown" Flavors

Each of these flavours is available in a diverse range of nuances. In addition to extracts and natural flavours, the global ingredient producer also offers a number of compositional flavours.

23 Oct 2012 --- Döhler (Doehler) has developed a new range of "brown" flavours, ranging from chocolate, cocoa, nut, nougat and coffee through to caramel and vanilla. Each of these flavours is available in a diverse range of nuances. In addition to extracts and natural flavours, the global ingredient producer also offers a number of compositional flavours.

"Going with the taste of the times!" was the motto guiding the development of the new flavour range. Not only are markets and technologies constantly changing, so are flavour preferences which are also constantly evolving and becoming more varied. For example, consumers today can choose from over a hundred different types of chocolate. While caramel often had a "burnt" character in Europe ten years ago, today's preferences are for milder accents. Flavour preferences also vary from one country to the next. That is why, in addition to a range of different nuances of the individual flavour variations, the Döhler portfolio also features a product range with a regional focus which appeals to country-specific flavour preferences.

"Brown" flavours stand for pure indulgence, which is why they are among the top flavour variations in the dairy and ice cream segment. Even in the alcoholic segment, cream liqueurs are unimaginable without them. Today, however, the boundaries between the individual beverage categories are becoming increasingly blurred.

The modern consumer is more than willing to try new things! Why shouldn't chocolate, nut, vanilla and co. provide added indulgence in the soft drink market, too? For this reason, Döhler has also developed innovative beverages with brown flavours, in addition to classic dairy and ice cream concepts. The spectrum ranges from carbonated soft drinks with lemon-caramel flavour to beer mixes refined with chocolate-cherry-chili-spice, through to a coffee-chocolate energy drink. Thanks to its integrated approach, Döhler offers everything from a single source: from the first product idea to the tailor-made compound which already contains all well-balanced ingredients. There is no easier way to achieving innovation for the customer.
