Custom flavour development for Canadian manufacturers

As the Canadian office of Delsa, we coordinate discussions about your recipe, process and target consumer with Delsa’s development team. Share whether you need a new profile, a replacement ingredient or help evaluating an existing flavour.

  1. 1. Brief & benchmark

    We capture the application, base matrix, pH, processing conditions, dosage target and any benchmark sample you want matched.

  2. 2. Flavourist submission

    Discuss candidate profiles with Delsa and confirm the sample format available for the selected reference.

  3. 3. Bench trial support

    We evaluate results with your R&D team in-application, then iterate on top notes, body, mouthfeel and off-note masking.

  4. 4. Scale-up & supply

    Before ordering, confirm the selected specification, relevant documents, pricing and delivery arrangements. Assess finished-product labelling for your recipe and market.

Technical support for product teams

Buying flavours is only half the job — getting them to perform in your line is the rest. Our Canadian team supports formulation, regulatory and supply questions directly, with a Canadian point of contact.

  • Dosage & application guidance

    Recommended usage rates by application, plus advice on carriers, solubility and heat or shear stability.

  • Off-note masking & modulation

    Bitterness, astringency and protein or vitamin off-notes addressed with masking and modulation systems.

  • Labelling & compliance

    Support on natural flavour declarations, allergen and non-GMO documentation, and CFIA labelling expectations.

  • Documentation package

    Specifications, safety data sheets, certificates of analysis and kosher or halal documentation where applicable.

  • Sampling & scale-up

    Bench samples for evaluation, then pilot and production quantities as your launch timeline firms up.

Built for Canadian food manufacturing requirements

Tell our Canadian team which ingredient documents your quality review requires. Specifications, allergen information and certification scope must be checked for the selected flavour rather than assumed across the catalogue.

Product-specific certification

Ask for current evidence and scope for the selected reference and manufacturing site; do not assume every flavour carries every certification.

CFIA labelling support

Guidance on natural flavour declarations, ingredient statements and bilingual English/French label wording for the Canadian market.

Format selection

Discuss solubility, carriers, handling and processing conditions. Available formats depend on the selected flavour.

Bench to production volumes

Sample quantities for R&D evaluation, then pilot and full production volumes as your launch scales.

Clean-label & natural options

Natural flavours, organic-compliant options and clean-label reformulation of existing profiles.

Local sales & logistics

Discuss pricing, availability and delivery arrangements with our Canadian office before placing an order.

Evaluate the flavour in your product

A flavour description is a starting point, not evidence of performance in your recipe. Use a documented trial to decide whether a candidate fits.

  1. 1. Define the base and challenge

    Share the product base, processing conditions, target taste and benchmark. Identify the issue: bitterness, aroma loss, an unwanted note or a new flavour direction.

  2. 2. Agree on the trial

    Ask technical support to confirm the selected flavour’s dosage, carrier and handling requirements. Compare candidates in the same recipe and process, including an unflavoured control where useful.

  3. 3. Record the decision

    Evaluate aroma, taste, aftertaste and appearance after processing and during your intended storage conditions. Record the formula, dose and observations against your agreed acceptance criteria before scale-up.

Confirm the documents for your selected flavour

Tell us which specification, allergen statement, safety data sheet, certificate of analysis or certification evidence your quality team needs. Availability and certification scope must be confirmed for the specific reference; an ingredient document does not establish compliance of your finished product.
