Unmask our masking tools!

Plant-based products often miss the flavour intensity of a traditional meat- based product. Creating a full taste experience could be challenging. The first step is to mask the off-note coming from the plant. The usual problems when working with plant-proteins are unbalanced taste with high astringency, dry mouthfeel or high acidity, typical off-notes are described as bitter, cardboard and rancid.

The Exter Masking Tools are able to mask the off-note without masking the main flavour of the product. You can use Exter Masking Tool to:

  • • Reduce the astringency
  • • Make product taste less bitter
  • • Improve the overall mouthfeel
  • • Suppress the acid taste
  • • Cover the rancid note

The masking effect is qualified in various applications, for example:

  • • Soy off-note in soy sauce or seasoning sauce
  • • Oxidised oil off-note in vegan mayonnaise
  • • Grainy and cereal off-notes in vegan products
  • • Beany off-note in vegetarian milk
  • • Whey drink protein masking
