HOW DO I USE FLAVOUR NATION BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE ESSENCE?

How much do I add?
Use 1 – 3 grams per kilo or 1 – 3 ml per litre. If you’re wondering how many drops to use, we suggest adding +- 6 drops per 100 ml of mixture. Our neat dilution ratio calculator can help you if you’d like to calculate how much flavouring to add to an existing recipe.

If you use too much flavouring, your creation can become slightly bitter and taste of perfume, so small adjustments are the golden rule to not over-flavour.

______

What kind of foods can I flavour?
Anything sweet that deserves creamy berry enchantment. This flavour blends beautifully into:

• Cakes, cupcakes and cookies
• Royal icing, buttercream icing
• Ganache
• Hard and soft candy
• Ice-cream bases
• Fillings and puddings

It works beautifully in baked and unbaked recipes. 
______

Does it change the texture of the food?
No. You only use a tiny amount so your bakes keep their structure perfectly. Your cake will still rise, your cookies will still spread and your cheesecakes will stay creamy and smooth with their blueberry cheesecake swirl shining through.

______

Does the flavour change when heated or baked?
No. Our Blueberry Cheesecake essence is heat-stable. The creamy berry profile stays consistent from mixing bowl to final bite, keeping its flavour right where it should be.
______

How do I get the flavour to really pop?
Our Blueberry Cheesecake essence thrives in the presence of sweetness. Ensure there is sugar or sweetener in the recipe you’re using to get the flavour to sparkle.

______

Can I use Flavour Nation Blueberry Cheesecake flavour in body products?
Our Flavour Nation range is 100% food grade, made for all your delicious bakes, drinks and treats. While we’ve experimented with our flavours in a gazillion yummy ways, they haven’t been tested for use on the skin. Even natural ingredients like cinnamon can cause skin irritation, so we don’t recommend using Flavour Nation flavouring in body products unless properly tested for allergic reactions across a wide range of skin types. Your skin is precious and sensitive, and we want to keep it happy ❤

BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE FLAVOUR PROFILE AND STRENGTH TEST

How to initially test the flavour profile and strength:

1. Pour 50 ml chilled milk, or weigh out 50 grams of vanilla ice cream.

2. Add 3 drops of flavouring to your 50 ml/g.

This is a middle-of-the-road dilution suggestion. It’s the equivalent of adding 2 grams/ml per kilo/litre where our suggested dilution range is 1 – 3 ml/g per litre/kilo.

3. Stir and taste.

4. If you taste bitterness, and you feel like you’ve over-flavoured, or if you feel like the flavour could be intensified, start again with a fresh measurement of 50 ml/g and dose differently. If you feel like you over-flavoured with 3 drops per 50 ml/g (2 g per kg/litre) then add 2 drops per 50 ml/g (1g per kg/litre). If you feel like you under-flavoured with adding a middle of the road 3 drops per 50 ml/g, then ramp it up. Take 50 ml/g and add 5 drops to it for a 3g per kg/litre dilution ratio.
