Flavor Profile
Flavorah Peppermint is the green candied peppermint of the holiday candy dish, clean and cool with a spicy pop.
It is not as ice cold as our Cool Menthol, but it presents a spicy peppermint pop just as it should. It is strong, so start low.
Special note: do not refrigerate this flavor. Below room temperature, menthol crystals can form; if they do, warm the bottle to about 100 degrees F and shake until they dissolve. Peppermint pairs with chocolate, vanilla, and cream.
Create Endless and Indelible Memories with Flavorah
All the flavors that we make at Flavorah are designed for mixing complex, layered recipes for products that may be consumed. Even though this Peppermint flavor will stand alone with memorable and captivating notes, we believe you will enjoy it most when you blend it with other flavors. It is our mission to create concentrates and extracts that become a powerful tool of flavor art in your culinary palette.
Use this Peppermint flavoring concentrate to develop your own artistic creations. As you blend it together with other complementary flavor layers, it will develop nuances and notes that either soften or strengthen according to your desire.
The layers of a completed flavoring profile can come from another Flavorah concentrate, such as Chocolate Deutsch or Vanilla Bean, or from the medium you choose to mix it with. Try mixing Flavorah in chocolates, hard candy, iced drinks, or a crisp cocktail.
Flavorah makes flavor art into an expression of individual perception and beauty. Our flavoring is designed to empower you to communicate this balance of potent perfection with the sense of taste and smell. Our Peppermint flavoring can harness the passing moments of enjoyment that will be experienced by everyone who samples your creation.
Flavorah is a product meant for the artist who wants to be tasted not heard, and smelled but not seen.
We know success when we see the satisfaction on the faces of our customers who create their own recipes. We delight in seeing our customers' recipes making the world a more bountiful experience for everyone to enjoy.
Layering Partners
Peppermint layers well with these partners; let your palate set the balance:
Ideas to explore:
- Flavorah Chocolate Deutsch and Flavorah Milk Chocolate for peppermint bark and hot cocoa
- Flavorah Vanilla Bean for a candy cane note
- Flavorah Cream for a peppermint ice cream
Mood Through Combination
At the holidays, Peppermint feels refreshing and festive. In a hot cocoa it turns restored, and on a cold morning it becomes clear and focused.
Recipe Ideas
Try peppermint bark with Chocolate Deutsch, a candy cane hard candy with Vanilla Bean, or a peppermint hot cocoa with Milk Chocolate. Start each with a small amount and adjust in test batches.
Mixing Notes
Peppermint is strong; keep it a small share and store it at room temperature.
Building a Recipe
Start with a small amount, taste, and build in small steps, testing in your own batch. As the lead mint it sits toward the middle of each range; as a peppermint accent, lower. Set the ratios first, then adjust the total.
