Rice Crunchies | The Flavor Apprentice (20/50/100ml)

The Flavor Apprentice creates water-soluble food flavorings for DIY mixing and culinary applications. Rice Crunchies provides a light, crisp rice cereal profile with subtle toasted notes, inspired by puffed rice breakfast cereals rather than sweetness. This highly concentrated flavor must be diluted before use. It is commonly used to add texture and cereal realism to dessert and breakfast-style recipes, and can also be applied carefully in food applications. All TFA concentrates are PG-based and water-soluble. Note: We purchase in bulk and rebottle into smaller bottles (not original manufacturer packaging).
