HOW DO I USE FLAVOUR NATION CINNAMON BUN 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 slip into overflavouring, the taste can turn intense or slightly bitter, so gentle adjustments keep everything balanced and delicious.
______

What kind of foods can I flavour with Cinnamon Bun essence?
Anything sweet that deserves cinnamon bun swirl oomph. Our essence blends beautifully into:

• Batters
• Every type of icing your creative heart is eager to flavour
• Puddings and fillings

It works wonderfully in baked and unbaked recipes. 
______

Does it change the texture of the food?
Not at all. Because you only need a small amount, it will not affect the structure of your bakes or treats. Your cake will still rise, your buns will stay tender, your pastries will hold their shape and your fillings will stay creamy.
______

Does the flavour change when baked or heated?
Nope. Our Cinnamon Bun essence is heat-stable. Meaning the flavour stays cinnamon-forward even after baking. From mixing to the final bake, it keeps its flavour profile.
______

How do I get the flavour to really pop?
Our Cinnamon Bun essence thrives in the presence of sweetness, so if you’re adding it to a recipe that contains sugar or sweetener, then you are setting your Cinnamon Bun flavouring up to shine.

Can I use Flavour Nation Cinnamon Bun 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 irritation, so we don’t recommend using them in body products unless properly tested for allergic reactions. Your skin is precious and sensitive, and we want to keep it happy ❤ We’re sorry we can’t offer more guidance on this!

CINNAMON BUN 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.
