Butterscotch | The Flavor Apprentice (20/50/100ml)

The Flavor Apprentice (TFA) is a US-based manufacturer of professional food flavorings used in DIY mixing and culinary applications. Butterscotch provides a rich blend of butter and caramelized sugar, creating a classic butterscotch profile commonly used in desserts, candy-style recipes and bakery blends. This is a highly concentrated aroma intended for dilution only. It is PG-based, water-soluble and typically used as a main dessert layer or a supporting sweetness enhancer. Note: We purchase in bulk and rebottle into smaller bottles (not original manufacturer packaging).
