Flavourings
Flavourings
Flavourings are products added to food in order to impart or modify odour and/or taste. EU legislation defines several types of flavourings:
-
flavouring substances
-
flavouring preparations
-
thermal process flavourings
-
smoke flavourings
-
flavour precursors
-
other flavourings
The EU Rules on flavourings and certain food ingredients with flavouring properties ensure the effective functioning of the internal market whilst ensuring a high level of protection of human health and a high level of consumer protection.
