Smoothie Flavoring
For the average consumer,
smoothies are more than cold drinks in a tall cup.Retailers like smoothies because they are extremely versatile. Smoothies allow retailers to offer customers an individualized and highly customizable experience. Smoothies can be sold as cold or frozen, with bases of yogurt, milk, juice or water. They can be made with sweet fruits, like strawberries or bananas, or bitter-tasting vegetables like kale. Blending in nutrient additives, such as protein, vitamins and riboflavin, makes smoothies even more individualized for consumers.

Our scientists have successfully developed smoothie flavoring using sweeteners that include refined sugar, as well as honey, agave syrup and stevia.
