and Spray Drying
Food and beverage processors and manufacturers have different requirements for flavor delivery systems and distinct specifications for color, heat, and other criteria. Trilogy offers encapsulated flavor powder blends that meet our customers’ needs, through dry blending and spray drying.
Advanced Dry Blend Technology
Dry blending is a cost-effective process of physically blending ingredients into a homogeneous dry mixture, resulting in the appropriate properties to deliver flavor into a specific application. These mixtures can consist of liquid spice extractives blended with salt or sugar, or they can be complex mixtures containing encapsulated flavors, salt, sugars, acidulants, and colors.
Spray drying is the process of encapsulating a concentrated botanical extract, spice extractive, or flavor blend with a carrier such as gum acacia, food starch, or other carrier blends. Whether dry blended or spray dried, encapsulated flavors ensure consistent quality and performance. In addition, they are convenient, economical, and extend shelf life.
