Flavor Profile
Flavorah Rock & Road tastes like the ice cream you share on a road trip stop, chocolate, marshmallow, and a crunch of nuts.
It opens with scrumptious chocolate ice cream and finishes with a little nuttiness. The chocolate is semi-sweet, blended with cream, and the marshmallow gives it an excellent mouthfeel.
Intensity is moderate. Rock & Road is an incredibly versatile flavor and an excellent chocolate note that is often hard to find. Start small and build.
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 Rock & Road 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 Rock & Road 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 Graham Cracker or Marshmallow, or from the medium you choose to mix it with. Try mixing Flavorah in frosting, truffles, coffee drinks, or a dessert 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 Rock & Road 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.

Customers rely on Rock & Road for a chocolate ice cream base and add Milk Chocolate when they want a more pronounced chocolate. Marshmallow and Marshmallow Vanilla fatten the mallow it already carries.

Start with a small amount, taste, and build in small steps, testing in your own batch. As the lead chocolate it sits toward the middle of each range; as a chocolate ice cream layer, lower. Set the ratios first, then adjust the total.
