The visual appearance and smell of baked goods and cereals are an indicator to consumers of freshness and quality. Consumers continue to look for more colorful and flavorful baked goods and cereals that contain simple, natural ingredients while touting bold colors and flavors.

Kalsec natural spice and herb extracts contribute color and flavor intensity for maximum impact in baked goods, cereals and snacks. Kalsec antioxidants assist in maintaining flavor and aroma characteristics by reducing degradation caused by oxidation.

Kalsec naturally sourced colors, food protection, spice and herb flavor extracts allow for alternatives to many synthetic ingredients, providing for cleaner label products.
High fat levels in baked goods often create instability and compromised shelf life.
As a result, the original freshness and profile of the baked good is lost, and off-flavors and aromas are generated. In the chart below, a peanut butter cookie (control) has lost some of its consumer appeal due to the reduction of fresh peanut aroma and flavor with increased oxidized off flavor and aroma.
Herbalox® Rosemary Extracts maintain the fresh peanut aroma and flavor in the cookie for increased shelf life and longer consumer appeal. Herbalox® Rosemary Extracts can easily be incorporated in both a nut and the dough for improved protection.
Providing a cleaner consumer label while maintaining flavor and aroma in cereals can be a challenge. Herbalox® Rosemary Extracts are easily added to extruded cereals to not only reduce the development of off, rancid and cardboard-like flavor notes, but also to increase the shelf life without compromising the flavor of the cereal.
