METHOD FOR EXTENDING THE FLAVOR SHELF LIFE OF AQUEOUS COMPOSITIONS FLAVORED WITH MOISTURE AND ACID SENSITIVE FLAVORS AND FLAVOR COMPOSITIONS HAVING EXTENDED FLAVOR SHELF LIVES.

摘要

A method for extending the flavor shelf life of aqueous compositions flavored with moisture and acid sensitive flavors. The increased flavor shelf life is obtained by combining an edible organic acid and edible divalent salt with a moisture and acid sensitive flavor. Flavor compositions capable of providing an aqueous composition with an increased flavor shelf life are also disclosed.
