Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for the production of an agglomerated particulate product containing one or more flavorant(s) and/or odorant(s). By spraying with certain binders, the storage stability of the particulate product is significantly improved, and the flavorant(s) and/or odorant(s) are protected, in particular, from oxidation. The present invention also relates to particulate products containing one or more flavorant(s) and/or odorant(s), preferably produced by a process according to the invention, and to the use of certain substances for improving the storage stability of particulate products containing one or more flavorant(s) and/or odorant(s).

1-15. (canceled)
A process for producing a particulate product comprising one or more flavorants and/or odorants, the process comprising:
- (i) producing particles comprising or consisting of the one or more flavorants and/or colorants and one or more carriers by spray drying in a drying chamber of a spray drying apparatus;
- (ii) spraying the particles in a fluidized bed which is integrated into the drying chamber with an aqueous solution that is free from flavorants and/or colorants but comprises 10 to 30 vol % of one or more binders selected from mono or polysaccharides with reducing groups, sugar alcohols, and a mixture thereof,
- wherein (i) and (ii) occur simultaneously and the particles are kept in motion and agglomerated in the drying chamber.
A method for improving oxidation stability one or more flavorants and/or odorants, the method comprising:
- (i) producing particles comprising or consisting of the one or more flavorants and/or colorants and one or more carriers by spray drying in a drying chamber of a spray drying apparatus;
- (ii) spraying the particles in a fluidized bed which is integrated into the drying chamber with an aqueous solution that is free from flavorants and/or colorants but comprises 10 to 30 vol % of one or more binders selected from mono or polysaccharides with reducing groups, sugar alcohols, and a mixture thereof,
- wherein (i) and (ii) occur simultaneously and the particles are kept in motion and agglomerated in the drying chamber.
