Acetyl Pyrazine 5 PG | 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. Acetyl Pyrazine 5% is a functional additive rather than a standalone flavor, providing dry, toasted, cereal-like and lightly nutty notes that enhance bakery, grain and snack-style recipes.

This is a highly concentrated aroma intended for dilution only. It is PG-based, water-soluble and used at very low percentages. Acetyl Pyrazine is commonly added to bread, cereal, cookie and nut profiles to increase realism and dryness. Note: We purchase in bulk and rebottle into smaller bottles (not original manufacturer packaging).
