Sweet Superfruits Hot in 2011

Sweet flavors dominate Sensient Flavors trend predictions for 2011, and many of them are sourced from superfruits. Sensient’s list was developed using its proprietary trend framework that filters trends from the broad, macro level down to the flavors themselves. The list encompasses flavors inspired from multiple macro trends including health and wellness, sensory and personalization.

Sensient Flavors flavor trend predictions for 2011 includes:

Aguaje: Widely grown and consumed in Peru, aguaje is a highly nutritious fruit with a bright orange flesh and a sweet taste that has been compared to a carrot.

Borojo: Grown in Colombia and Ecuador and thought to boost energy, borojo has a pleasantly sweet and sour taste.
Ceylon Cinnamon: Used widely in England and Mexico, Ceylon cinnamon has a complex flavor with a citrus overtone and is less sweet than cassia cinnamon.
Cherimoya: Native to Ecuador, Colombia and Peru, the cherimoya has a tropical fruit flavor with slight cream and green notes.
Grains of Paradise: Native to Africa, these dried seeds offer a complex flavor profile with earthy, woody, citrus, herb and heat nuances.
Hibiscus: Popular in South America and the Caribbean, hibiscus offers a tart, tangy berry flavor.
Pandan: Grown in the tropical areas of Asia, pandan offers a uniquely sweet flavor and aroma.
