Why Customers Love Flavor Concentrates by Nature's Flavors

★★★★★ Great Flavor Concentrates for Homemade Syrups!

These work great to flavor homemade syrups with. We use these in our little mobile coffee trailer as we make all in house syrups and these are perfect. They are very concentrated so a little bit goes a long way.

Viola B.
★★★★★ Wonderful Product

This strawberry flavor concentrate has an amazing flavor and aroma...it's great for adding in cakes, muffins and more. I also love adding to my smoothies and drinks for an amazing strawberry "jamlike" flavor. It doesn't take much to achieve desired flavor. I highly recommend this product.

Julie B.
★★★★★ Used this to enhance the flavor of my blueberry bagels!

This product is amazing. Just added .25% to my recipe (of the total volume). Great berry flavor, aroma! Made my blueberry bagels taste and smell more like blueberry muffins! Excellent product!

Nicholas P.
★★★★★ Unbelievable organic concentrates.

All of the organic concentrates are unbelievable. Every side by side comparison to our products ours come out on top. It's all in using the best flavorings.

Much better than peach extract or syrup I’ve been using. Allowed me to reduce the sugar/sweetener in my tea recipe while preserving flavor. Very intense peach flavor.

Your Guide to Using Flavor Concentrates

Learn how flavor concentrates work and when to use them for the best results. If you're only purchasing one type of product from Nature’s Flavors, this versatile, natural flavor concentrate is the one to get.

FAQs

Nature’s Flavors' flavor concentrates are our most widely-used flavors and are best used in any water-based application.

While often used interchangeably, these products have distinct characteristics:

Concentrates are highly potent versions of flavorings, requiring less product per use. They are often water-soluble and perfect for beverages and candies.

Extracts are made by infusing natural ingredients in alcohol, creating authentic flavor profiles. They're typically alcohol-based and offer the most natural taste.

Our high-quality concentrated flavorings boost the flavor of any culinary creation you are making. Simply add a few drops of our natural flavor concentrates to your creamy homemade ice cream to create a truly mouth-watering treat. You could also add a few drops to your culinary cuisine or to any beverage to enhance its flavor!

Use our concentrated flavorings to make delicious desserts, like cookies, cake, pie, and frostings. The savory flavor concentrates could be used to cook your favorite meal, side dish, or sauce.

Flavor concentrates work well in water-based applications like:

  • • Syrups
  • • Ice Cream
  • • Baked Goods
  • • Yogurt
  • • Beverages

If you're only purchasing one type of product from Nature’s Flavors, this versatile, natural flavor concentrate is the one to get.

For our natural flavor concentrates, we recommend that our customers follow these guidelines to get the most from our premium line of concentrated flavors. Our recommended starting usage amount for flavor concentrates is about 0.25% to 3% by weight in recipes. These concentrated flavorings are affected by fat, sugar, and bulking agent content, so a little experimentation may be needed to get the perfect flavor for your taste!

Our natural and organic concentrates are potent. If you notice a minty, medicinal taste on your palate, or find yourself still tasting the flavor an hour after enjoying your creation, you've crossed the line from perfectly flavored to over-flavored. You want to tease the taste buds, not overwhelm them. 

Signs you've over-flavored:

  • • Persistent flavor that lingers long after eating
  • • Overpowering taste that masks other ingredients
  • • Minty or cooling sensation on the palate

Both work well for beverages, but the best choice depends on your specific needs. Concentrates are usually water-based. They can be more cost-effective for large-scale production, and may include functional ingredients like citric acid or gum acacia to support stability and mouthfeel—making them better suited for bold, intense flavors.

Extracts, containing alcohol and natural flavors, are best used for products containing minimal ingredients. They blend easily, and are ideal for subtle, nuanced flavoring for clean-label products. 

Extracts and concentrates have similar usage rates (extracts 0.25–4%, concentrates 0.25–3%), so start low and adjust to taste. Choose based on your desired flavor intensity, formulation base, and ingredient preferences.
