Abstract: Volatile flavoring compounds such as acetaldehyde are fixed in low amounts by having the compound present in solution during the crystallization of sucrose. It is believed that the volatile flavors are entrapped as impurities within the crystal structure. The resulting compositions have excellent stability over a wide range of humidities, are soluble in both hot and cold water, and have application as flavor and aroma modifiers for foods.
