About Mosaic Flavors - North America's Custom Flavor Manufacturer

Mosaic Flavors is a flavor manufacturer that develops custom liquid and powder flavors for food and beverage companies.

Our team works with product developers, R&D teams, and procurement leaders to design flavors used in applications such as:

• Beverages and hydration powders
• Dairy and plant-based products
• Bakery and snacks
• Gummies and confectionery
• Functional nutrition products

At Mosaic Flavors, we combine the science and art of flavor creation to help manufacturers bring great-tasting products to market.

Mosaic Flavors specializes in custom liquid and powder flavors for food and beverage manufacturers.

Our flavors are designed to perform in real manufacturing environments and are commonly used in:

• Ready-to-drink beverages
• Powdered drink mixes and stick packs
• Dairy products and plant-based beverages
• Bakery products
• Gummies and confectionery
• Functional nutrition and supplement products

Each flavor is developed to match the specific application, processing conditions, and taste profile required by the product developer.

Flavor matching is the process of recreating an existing flavor profile from a new source.

Our flavorists evaluate a benchmark sample and recreate the flavor to match the taste, aroma, and performance of the original. We work from what we can taste and smell. We don't need the formula from your current supplier.

For complex matches, we also have GC-MS analysis in house, which lets us look at the chemical profile of the benchmark when sensory work alone isn't enough.

Flavor matching is commonly used when:

• Switching flavor suppliers without changing your product
• Replacing a discontinued ingredient
• Reformulating for cost reduction
• Recreating a legacy flavor profile

We ask customers to send both the benchmark flavor and the base product they're working in. A flavor that smells right in isolation can behave differently in your actual formulation. Knowing how you plan to evaluate the match also helps us target the right things from the start.

Flavor development timelines depend on the complexity of the project.

For flavor matching projects, first samples typically ship within two weeks of receiving the benchmark and base product. Custom flavor development timelines vary by project.

Once a flavor is approved, Mosaic Flavors focuses on short production lead times, helping manufacturers move quickly from development to commercial production.

If you're in a bind because your current supplier stopped delivering, tell us. We keep near-match options on hand and have gotten production flavor ready within a week for manufacturers who needed to move fast.

Many flavor companies require five to ten weeks to produce commercial orders, which can delay product launches.

At Mosaic Flavors, we prioritize fast production once a flavor is approved, helping our customers bring products to market faster and respond quickly to industry trends.

Mosaic Flavors serves food and beverage manufacturers across North America.

Mosaic Flavors operates two manufacturing facilities: one in California and one in Montreal, Canada. This dual-location footprint allows us to efficiently service both the West Coast and East Coast, while also providing built-in redundancy to support supply chain reliability and business continuity for our customers.

Our team supports customers developing products in categories such as beverages, dairy, bakery, and functional nutrition, working closely with product developers to create custom flavor systems.

Product developers can request flavor samples directly from Mosaic Flavors.

Our team will review your product concept, application, and flavor goals to develop samples tailored to your formulation.

Requesting samples is often the first step in developing a custom flavor for a new product launch.
