The Flavor Apprentice (TFA) is a leading producer of water-soluble flavourings.
Cantaloupe delivers a clear musk-melon profile: sun-ripe orange flesh, silky honey sweetness and a fresh, lightly green rind note—great for sodas/slushes, fruit/berry blends, smoothies/yoghurts and light desserts. Use: Concentrate that must be diluted. TFA flavours are water-soluble and PG-carried; some may contain traces of ethanol. Note: We purchase in bulk and re-bottle into smaller bottles (not the original packaging).
