Abstract
The process provides particulate flavor compositions having a flavor oil fixed in a particulate polyol material. It consists in mixing a mono- or disaccharide, a polysaccharide and water with a minor but flavor effective amount of a flavor oil such that the resulting particular flavor compositions possess a Tg below room temperature, and extruding the resulting homogeneous substrate at a temperature to form a melt which on cooling solidifies as a hard rubbery amorphous material having the flavor oil entrapped therein.
