FAIRFIELD, N.J., Sept. 27, 2005—Pharmaceutical manufacturers seeking special flavors for syrups and lozenges may want to consider A&B Ingredients to obtain flavors such as acerola, assai, cupuaçu, mango, papaya, passion fruit and soursop. These flavors are extracted through a unique proprietary process and the result is a pure 100 percent natural concentrate. No other liquids or solids are added to the flavor before shipment to customers.
“These and many other special flavors would be ideal for pharmaceutical companies that seek to please customers with more cosmopolitan tastes,” says Gil Bakal, managing director of A&B Ingredients. “Also, since these are all pure extracts, they’re label friendly,” adds Bakal.
“For markets with fast growing ethnically diverse groups, it makes sense to broaden the line of flavors available. The rapid growth in spicy foods shows that customers are looking for something new,” reports Bakal. “We invite pharmaceutical syrup and lozenge manufacturers to go beyond the all-too-common grape, lemon and cherry choices offered today.”
Other flavors available include guava, peach, pear, mulberry, kiwi, cashew, watermelon and more. “With so many choices, a pharmaceutical company can distinguish its offerings, too,” adds Bakal.
