Delivering the true taste and distinct qualities of cultured flavors to your dairy, dairy-free, and plant-based applications requires specialized flavor expertise and resources. At Edlong, we use over a century of experience exclusively focused on the taste of dairy, including our expertise in the field of dairy enzymes and cultures, and a cultivated library of hundreds of 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 Cultured Flavors Can Be
Whether you are looking to provide the desired mouthfeel, achieve optimal fat content, or find the right level of tanginess and acidity to improve taste, 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 cultured flavors to develop solutions for your applications.
Our authentic-tasting cultured dairy flavors can also be used to replace or reduce dairy commodities in your applications to provide cost savings and improve flavor consistency – all while boosting taste, enhancing mouthfeel, and adding balance.
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.
