Flavors can be classified as natural flavors and artificial flavors. Natural flavors are usually sourced from edible essential oils and oleoresins, or is an essence or extract from fruits/fruit juices, spices, vegetables/vegetable juices, herbs, roots, buds etc. Artificial or synthetic flavors come from inedible sources such as petroleum or paper pulp, which are processed to produce aroma chemicals for different flavors. Artificial flavors are cheaper than their natural counterparts are, as they do not require high investments in cultivating and harvesting fields. Artificial flavors could also be tailored to enhance a particular flavor according to one’s needs. However, health concerns related to consuming synthetic flavors and stringent the rules & regulations set for the use of these flavors in food & beverages are considered to restrain market demand to a certain extent.
