All the flavors that we make at Flavorah are designed to mix complex and layered recipes for products that may be consumed.

It is our mission to create concentrates and extracts that become a powerful tool of flavor art in your culinary palette.
Use this Black Cherry flavoring concentrate to develop your own artistic creations. As you blend it together with other complementary flavor layers, it will develop nuances and notes that either soften or strengthen according to your desire.
The layers of a completed flavoring profile can come from another Flavorah concentrate, or from the medium you choose to mix it with. Try mixing Flavorah in baked goods, sweet frosting, syrups, sugar free smoothie, or a cocktail beverage.
Flavorah makes flavor art into an expression of individual perception and beauty. Our flavoring is designed to empower you to communicate this balance of potent perfection with the sense of taste and smell. Our Black Cherry flavoring can harness the passing moments of enjoyment that will be experienced by everyone who samples your creation.

We know success when we see the satisfaction on the faces of our customers who create their own recipes. We delight in seeing our customers' recipes making the world a more bountiful experience for everyone to enjoy.
Flavor Profile
Flavorah Black Cherry delivers a deep, dark cherry experience with rich sweetness and sophisticated complexity. The aroma presents ripe black cherries with wine-like depth and subtle almond undertones characteristic of premium cherry varieties.
