The Flavor Apprentice (TFA) is a leading producer of water-soluble flavourings.
French Vanilla delivers a classic creamy vanilla: gentle bean notes, rounded sweetness and a smooth body—lighter/cleaner than custards, ideal as a cream/dessert base or a binder in fruit and coffee recipes.
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).
