The Flavor Apprentice (TFA) is a leading producer of water-soluble flavourings. Malted Milk recreates the classic malted milkshake profile: creamy milk notes, toasted barley/malt and a gentle vanilla roundness that binds dessert mixes.
Use: Concentrate that must be diluted. TFA flavours are water-soluble and PG-carried; some may contain traces of ethanol. Note: We buy in bulk and re-bottle into smaller sizes (not the original packaging).

- Build a shake: layer with vanilla custards, marshmallow and fruit (strawberry/banana) or chocolate.
- Malted desserts: pair with caramel/RY4, biscuit/cheesecake and a touch of Acetyl Pyrazine (0.1–0.3%) for toasted edges.
- Tame graininess: round with 0.25–0.5% cream/vanilla; avoid overdosing which can feel “powdery.”
