A global leader in flavor and fragranced, supplies the majority of the flavors used in food products purchased in grocery stores and restaurants in the US and internationally. Their goal was to continue to stay ahead of competition, recoup time and cost during the flavor discovery phase and maintain the level of flavor quality and consistency their customers have come to expect.

Code Refinery developed an Automated Flavor Matching System. This system allowed a “flavorist” to create flavor match as close as possible to a customer’s flavor request. The system was designed to perform several iterations of a “flavor formula” until a desired match was achieved.

Code Refinery delivered a system that interfaced with their global compound database and LIMS and integrated with GS/MS instrumentation. The software allowed researchers to generate variations on flavor based on a source flavor and the system compounded the variations. The system was also designed to allow walk-away operation.
