I. Flavor enhancer for food industry
Baked food: used in bread, biscuits, and cakes to simulate natural roasted aroma and enhance the wheat and caramel flavors.
Nuts and puffed foods: added to peanut products, popcorn, potato chips, etc. to enhance the nutty aroma and pleasant aroma after frying/baking.
Dairy products: used in cheese, yogurt, etc. to cover up the milky smell and add complex aroma layers.
Seasonings and sauces: used in meat flavors, barbecue sauces, soy sauces, etc. to enhance the smoky feeling and authenticity of meat aroma.
Beverage applications:
Added in small amounts to coffee and cocoa drinks to simulate deep roasted aroma; used to blend malt aroma in beer or whiskey.
Regulatory compliance:
The EU (FL 14.013), the US (FEMA 3126) and China (GB 2760) have all approved it as a food flavoring and it must be used at the recommended dose (usually at the ppm level).
II. Daily chemicals and personal care
Fragrance blending:
Perfumes and home fragrances: As a key ingredient in smoky and caramel notes, it is often used in oriental and woody fragrances, and works with vanilla, coffee and leather notes.
Care products: Used in soaps and shampoos (especially men's products), it provides a warm and dry grain flavor and masks the odor of chemical raw materials.
Innovative applications:
It is used in some high-end skin care products to create a "natural baking" aroma and enhance the product's memory point (the concentration must be strictly controlled to prevent irritation).
