Flavor Brief - How to request your flavor sample

Before we start crafting your flavor, we need the full picture. A sample request brief bridges our product concept with the outcome you expect—keeping your team and Mosaic aligned from day one. A well-structured brief helps us:

• Minimize delays and miscommunication
• Match the right flavors and formats to your goals
• Speed up revisions and sample delivery
• Ensure regulatory and retail compliance

Every Field Has a Purpose

Project Name & Launch Timeline
Provides context and helps us prioritize your request.

Project Goals
Whether it’s a line extension, cost reduction, or innovation, we align solutions to your objective.

Who Will Evaluate the Sample?
Knowing this ensures we align with what “great” looks like to your team. A strong brief includes objectives, deliverables, and timing—so we can move faster, together.

Target Application & Format
Gummies, dairy, beverages, or baked goods? Each format impacts flavor form and performance.

Certifications Needed
We’ll craft your flavors for organic or kosher certification needs.

Retailers or Market Goals
We’ll ensure flavors align with retailer-specific standards, like those required by Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s.

Flavor Profile Desired
Be descriptive! “Juicy mango” is different than “tart green mango.”

Natural or Artificial?
Impacts sourcing, regulatory paths, and cost.

Form & Solubility
Powder or liquid? Oil or water soluble? We’ll make sure it fits your process.

Heat Stability
We select ingredients that hold up in your process (baking, retort, cold fill, etc.).

Base Formula (optional)
Sharing your unflavored base allows our lab to test the flavor directly in your matrix for best results.

Regulatory Requirements
Need flavors that are TTB-approved, Prop 65-compliant, or EU-compatible? We’ve got you covered.

Label Claims
Tell us if you need flavors that support non-GMO, allergen-free, ethanol-free, or gluten-free labels.

Dietary Suitability
Kosher, halal, or vegan—we’ll build flavor solutions that meet lifestyle needs.

Functional Properties
Need help masking off-notes, boosting intensity, or adding mouthfeel? Let’s make it happen.
