Abstract
The present disclosure provides flavored compositions including flavored particulate materials having different solubilities or dissolution rates and food and beverage compositions, including flavor-changing food and beverage products, comprising the flavored compositions.
Claims20
A flavored composition comprising:
- a plurality of first particles and a plurality of second particles;
- a plurality of first particles and a plurality of third particles;
- a plurality of second particles and a plurality of third particles;
- or
- a plurality of first particles, a plurality of second particles, and a plurality of third particles,
- wherein each of the plurality of first particles comprises a first matrix and a first flavoring agent,
- wherein the first matrix and the first flavoring agent define an outer surface of each of the plurality of first particles;
- wherein each of the plurality of second particles comprises a second matrix and a second flavoring agent,
- wherein the second matrix and the second flavoring agent define an outer surface of each of the plurality of second particles, and
- wherein each of the plurality of third particles comprises a third matrix and a third flavoring agent,
- wherein the third matrix and the third flavoring agent define an outer surface of each of the plurality of third particles,
- wherein the first matrix is different from the second matrix and the third matrix, and the second matrix is different from the third matrix.
