Orange continues to be one of the most widely consumed citrus flavors in the world. However, the global orange oil market is facing significant supply challenges due to factors such as crop shortages, poor fruit quality and climate-related disruptions.

As demand for natural products continues to grow, driven by widespread use in food and beverages, cosmetics and cleaning products, orange oil prices are expected to increase over the next 3-5 years.

In response these challenges, Flavorchem, a global flavor and ingredient supplier, has developed taste mod™ orange, an innovative line of orange oil replacers. They offer the zesty taste of citrus at a more affordable price.

“Our sweet orange oil replacers have been applied in easy-to-use flavor forms specifically designed for beverages,” says Niki Hernandez, senior manager flavor development. “Available in extract, emulsion, and spray dry forms, it comes in both TYPE and WONF versions and meets specific regulatory requirements.”

Taste mod™ orange delivers an authentic, true-to-fruit Valencia Orange flavor, labeled as “natural flavor” and ideal for clean-label products. Perfect for a wide range of beverage applications, it provides a reliable, high-quality alternative to traditional orange oils.

Flavorchem is hosting a live webinar on Tuesday, October 15 to help attendees stay ahead of the evolving citrus market as industry experts unpack supply chain challenges, future market outlook and emerging citrus flavor trends.
