When should I choose a flavor emulsion over other formats?
Edited
Emulsions are the right choice when your product is water-based and involves heat, cooking, or extended processing. They perform especially well in hot-pack syrups, cooked candy and gummy bases, puddings, and dairy applications where you need flavor to stay stable and evenly distributed through the entire process — including after cooking. If flavor retention post-heat is a priority and your system is aqueous rather than fat-based, an emulsion is generally your strongest option.
