FLV Cucumber Tasting Notes:
Cucumber flavoring concentrate formulated from the ground up for manufacturing and creating DIY recipes. A fresh and innovative flavor profile that s like a happy hours cocktail. Don’t bother turning up your pinky finger when you burn this…it’s not a light airy essence, it’s a good fresh and full hitting vegetal . Delightful with a cooling menthol, or can be happily blended with some fruits for a very condescending and upscale juice from the top shelf. Capital!
All the flavors that we make at Flavorah are designed to mix complex and layered recipes for products that may be consumed. Even though this Cucumber flavor will stand alone with memorable and captivating notes, we believe you will enjoy it most when you blend with other flavors. It is our mission to create concentrates and extracts that become a powerful tool of flavor art in your culinary palette.
Use this Cucumber 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 Cucumber flavoring can harness the passing moments of enjoyment that will be experienced by everyone who samples your creation.
Flavorah is a product meant for the artist who wants to be tasted not heard, and smelled but not seen.
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.
