Abstract
A method for stabilization of potent alkanone-heterocyclic flavorants in dry powder form is provided. Coordination of alkanone-heterocyclic flavorants to transition metal salts results in the formation of stable crystalline complexes, which upon hydration release the free flavorant. Food and topping products containing the stabilized alkanone-heterocyclic flavorant are provided as are methods for stabilizing the alkanone-heterocyclic flavorant.
Claims6
A method for stabilizing an alkanone-heterocyclic flavorant comprising mixing an alkanone-heterocyclic flavorant with a transition metal salt in a solvent thereby forming an alkanone-heterocyclic-transition metal salt complex and stabilizing the alkanone-heterocyclic flavorant.
