Abstract
The invention concerns a process for the preparation of flavoring mixtures by heating of fatty acids or fatty acid derivatives with an oxidizing agent in the presence of at least 0.1% by weight of an antioxidant. Polyunsaturated fatty acids or animal or vegetable fats which are rich in such acids are preferred as starting materials. The preferred oxidizing agent is oxygen. The oxidation mixtures obtained are rich in aldehydes and can be used to improve the organoleptic properties of foods.
