A complex and balanced taste experience can be achieved by layering ingredients and flavor technology. Start with a foundation of ingredients like salt, sweeteners, or acids that represent the basic tastes. Next, layer herbs, spices, and ingredients like vegetable and fruit powders for real food flavor and aromatics. For differentiation and culinary-appeal, elevate the blend with compound and processed flavors like fire-roasted. Lastly, flavor maskers and enhancers can be used to cover unwanted tastes or enhance mouth-feel or pleasing notes like dairy and umami.

Let your consumers experience layers of culinary-inspired flavor. Here are some classic seasonings that are anything but simple:

• Cinnamon Sugar: Perfect balance of warm spice and sweet goodness.
• Pumpkin Pie Spice: Classic mix of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and allspice.
• Steakhouse Spice: A bold, savory blend of salt, garlic, onion, and a kick of pepper.
• Poultry Seasoning: A timeless blend of thyme, sage, black pepper, marjoram, rosemary, and nutmeg.
• Lemon Pepper: A zesty combo of salt, black pepper, onion, garlic, and lemon oil.
