Butter Flavors

Delivering the true taste and mouthfeel of butter to your dairy and dairy-free applications requires specialized flavor expertise and resources. At Edlong, we use over a century of experience exclusively focused on the taste of dairy and a cultivated library of hundreds of dairy-free and dairy flavors that can be applied in thousands of combinations to offer the perfect solution for your unique application development challenges.


Everything The Taste of Butter Can Be
Butter profiles have distinct differences from region to region around the world. Taste varies, depending on the cow’s diet, how the cream is processed, climate, and even cultural preferences. At Edlong, we’ve captured these nuances with the industry’s broadest butter and dairy-free butter flavor library – featuring global profiles that range from sweet and creamy, to brown and cooked. Edlong’s global team of dairy-flavor experts is uniquely skilled at leveraging and customizing our best-in-class library of dairy and dairy-free butter flavors to develop solutions for your applications.
Our authentic-tasting dairy-free and dairy butter flavors can also be used to help improve flavor consistency, boost and balance taste profiles, and increase the perception of creamy mouthfeel.
Our flavors are available in a variety of forms, even ones that are heat stable and can overcome the most intense processing conditions. Other formats include liquid/oil-soluble, paste, spray dry, powder, emulsions, and more. We also certify flavors to meet your label restrictions such as Organic, Kosher Dairy, Kosher Pareve, Halal, Non-GMO, and Whole Foods Compliant.

Our dedicated and highly skilled team of flavorists offers extensive experience in developing butter flavors that are ideal for a wide range of applications. Edlong’s expertise in dairy flavors and their building blocks, as well as the latest in butter technologies, consumer trends, and cultural preferences, fuels our ability to support you in developing exceptional products to suit your specific needs.

Our global team of R&D and Applications experts is at the ready to collaborate with you to find the perfect solution, whether it’s a custom formulation or an option from our existing library of hundreds of ready-to-use butter flavors that can be applied in thousands of combinations.
