Spark an explosion of flavours with ExtraCell AdTaste Smoked

In the world of food flavours, there’s often a clear black&white division: it’s either loved or hated. But there’s a flavour that will always be craved by any demographic — a zesty authentic smoked taste.

That’s why we’ve created ExtraCell AdTaste Smoked. This clean-label ingredient is based on yeast extract; due to a special technology it brings a traditional wood-smoke taste to your products. Catering to most diet styles, it does not contain allergens and is Halal and Kosher certified.

Read on to learn more about its properties and ways you can upgrade your snacks, sauces, seasonings, meat products, or plant-based alternatives.

Embracing the sizzling rise of smoked flavours

There’s a sizzling phenomenon that’s been causing a stir in culinary trends — the surge in popularity of smoked flavours. According to Innova Market Insights, this trend has been burning bright lately. It shows an impressive Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of +21.7% in the plant-based category and +6.5% in the snacks sector.

As consumers’ preferences shift towards plant-based options, smokiness adds a meaty taste that many might crave. And now, with ExtraCell AdTaste Smoked, you hold the secret to riding this flavour wave.

Imagine infusing your products with the very essence of rich, deep smokiness, that unmistakable aroma and taste that conjure images of cosy campfires and rustic BBQs. ExtraCell AdTaste Smoked allows you to infuse your products with the allure that consumers are raving about.

ExtraCell AdTaste Smoked’s versatility in savoury applications

As a water-soluble ingredient, ExtraCell AdTaste Smoked suits most savoury applications, bringing its traditional smoked qualities:

1. Smokey Seasonings: Develop a line of clean-label, allergen-free seasonings for various dishes, including barbecue rubs, spice blends for grilling, and smoked salt blends. Highlight the rich, deep smoke and wood-smoke flavors in each blend.
2. Savoury Vegan Products: Expand your vegan product line by incorporating the yeast extract into items like plant-based sausages, burgers, and deli slices. Promote the authentic natural smoking and clean-label attributes of your ingredients.
3. Smoky Snack Foods: Create smoky-flavored snacks such as potato chips, nuts, or popcorn. Emphasize the tasty, wood-smoke flavors and allergen-free aspects of your product.
4. Smoky Salad Dressings: Design salad dressings with a rich and deep smoky taste, perfect for improving the taste of salads and grilled vegetables.
5. Smoked Pizza and Pasta Sauces: Develop pasta and pizza sauces that capture the authentic natural smoking element, making them stand out in the Italian cuisine market.
6. Smoked Cheese Alternatives: Create dairy-free, vegan cheese alternatives with a traditional smoked with beech wood twist. These products can be sliced or shredded for use in sandwiches, pizzas, and more.
7. Smoked Dessert Ingredients: Explore the unique concept of incorporating smoky flavors into dessert ingredients, such as smoked chocolate chips or caramel sauce, for a creative twist on sweet treats.

An alternative to unhealthy PAHs

There’s another way of achieving that smokiness — roasting your food or adding a smoked ingredient. However, it comes with an issue. Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are compounds that can form when certain foods are cooked at high temperatures. While they can contribute to the smoky flavours we love, excessive consumption of PAHs has raised concerns due to potential health risks.

AdTaste Smoked utilises cutting-edge technology to reduce over 93% in PAHs. This means you can indulge in the flavours you crave without compromising your or your consumers’ well-being. It’s the ingredient that lets you savour the best of both worlds — deliciousness and safety.
