Reducing Sugar Content With Natural Flavourings

Natural flavourings can offer much more than just making food and drink taste great. Find out they can also make things healthier.

As experts in natural flavourings, we use them for many different things. The most obvious is of course to make things taste great. We’ve been making just about anything taste great for years. From cakes and biscuits, to ice cream and cheese – not to mention all the delicious beverage flavours we come up with.

But natural flavourings can be used for so much more than just enhancing flavour in food and drink. These clever little flavourings can also do all sorts of wonderful things like improve mouthfeel, prolong freshness, mask nasty tastes, reduce salt content and of course, help with sugar reduction.

Why is reducing sugar so important?

Back in 2016, Public Health England reacted to the public health issue of obesity within the UK. The government took steps to put pressure on just about anyone that was manufacturing food and drink to reduce their sugar content by 20%. This was going to be no easy challenge for the food and drink industry, as sugar not only greatly impacts on flavour, but also impacts issues like shelf life and texture.

How do natural flavourings help with sugar reduction?

Now, enter the flavour industry. The flavour industry quickly realised that flavourings could be part of the answer to the sugar reduction crisis. If a flavouring can make something taste of strawberry, why can’t it also make it taste sweeter?

Natural flavourings would present a much more appealing option to reducing sugar content than traditional artificial sweeteners that have been used for many years. Here is a product that is 100% natural and can help to dramatically reduce sugar content in just about any product.
