Food flavoring Blackcurrant, 5 ml

A vivid berry note for small-batch drinks and confectionery

Food flavoring Blackcurrant in a compact 5 ml bottle gives bakers, home producers and small studios a fast way to add a bright, recognizable berry taste without cooking down syrups or preparing natural puree. This small volume is well suited for trial batches and recipe testing before scaling up to larger production runs. The product belongs to the Flavorings and flavor additives category, which brings together concentrates used to give finished goods a stable and natural taste profile.

The main area of use is the food industry: home baking, fillings for candies and marmalade, syrups, fruit drinks, jellies, yogurts, cottage cheese desserts, lemonades and cocktail bases. The tart, slightly sour berry character with a characteristic sharp edge works especially well in dairy products, compotes, hard candies and homemade caramel. Beyond cooking, similar flavor concentrates are also used in the production of liquids for heated vaping devices, in certain scented household chemical goods, and occasionally in cosmetic formulas that require a food-grade, skin-safe scent, such as lip balms or children's cosmetics.

It is best to add the flavoring at the final stage of preparation, once the mixture has cooled to around 40-60 degrees Celsius, which helps preserve the volatile aromatic compounds and prevents them from breaking down under boiling temperatures. For hot syrups and preserves, remove the mixture from heat first, let it cool slightly, then stir in the drops thoroughly. A typical starting dosage is around 0.1-0.5 ml per kilogram of finished product, though the exact amount should be adjusted by testing, beginning with a smaller dose and increasing gradually until the desired intensity is reached.

Blackcurrant pairs naturally with other fruity and dessert notes, giving plenty of room for creative blending. A creamy layer can be added by combining it with Plombir Food Flavoring, producing a recognizable berry ice cream taste. An interesting fruity contrast comes from blending with Peach Food Flavoring, while desserts with a light nutty undertone benefit from a small addition of Hazelnut Food Flavoring.

The bottle should be stored tightly closed, in a cool dark place away from direct sunlight and heat sources, which keeps the aroma stable throughout its shelf life. Once opened, it is best used within the period recommended by the manufacturer, avoiding any moisture or contamination inside the bottle.
