    Case Studies

    See how our partnerships and innovative ingredient solutions have helped clients overcome challenges and achieve their goals.

    Extending Mold-Free Shelf Life in Packaged Muffins

    Client: Volt Beverages

    The Challenge

    Goodly Bakes was experiencing significant flavor loss during the high-temperature baking process of their sponge cakes, resulting in a flat taste profile

    The Solution

    We introduced our “Butter vanilla” flavor from our Liquid Flavours range. Formulated specifically for high-heat applications, it retained its rich, creamy, and buttery notes even after baking.

    THE RESULTS

    • Improved sensory scores for aroma and taste by 40%
    • Allowed for a lower dosage rate due to higher retention.
    • Consistent flavor profile across different batch sizes.

    Developing a Zero-Sugar Energy Drink

    Client: Volt Beverages

    The Challenge

    Volt Beverages wanted to launch a competitive energy drink but struggled to replicate the distinctive taste profile of the market leader (Red Bull) using generic mixed fruit flavors.

    The Solution

    Piffany’s technical team provided our specific “Red bull energy drink” flavor from our Clear Flavours range. This single-solution flavor captured the exact aromatic notes and tartness required.

    THE RESULTS

    • Achieved a 98% flavor match in consumer triangle tests.
    • Simplified inventory by using a single flavor system.
    • Accelerated product launch by 3 months.

    Optimizing Seasoning Adhesion on Potato Chips

    Client: CrunchTime Snacks

    The Challenge

    CrunchTime Snacks needed a robust savory profile for a new line of chips but found their current “Cheese” seasoning lacked depth and impact

    The Solution

    We utilized our “Cheese” and “Onion powder” from our Powdered Flavours catalogue. The combination provided an immediate savory impact with a lingering authentic cheese note.

    THE RESULTS

    • Created a "craveable" flavor profile that became their top seller.
    • Ensured uniform flavor distribution on the chips.
    • Met cost-in-use targets for the competitive snack market.

    Vibrant Blueberry Hard Candy

    Client: Sweet Delights Inc

    The Challenge

    Sweet Delights aimed to create a signature “Blueberry” hard candy. Previous attempts resulted in a cooked jam taste rather than a fresh fruit profile

    The Solution

    We sampled our “Blueberry” flavor from the Liquid Flavours range. It offered a bright, fresh, and slightly tart note that cut through the high sugar base of the hard candy.

    THE RESULTS

    • Successfully launched their "Forest Fruit" line.
    • Flavor remained stable and distinct throughout the shelf life.
    • Positive consumer feedback on the "authentic" fruit taste

    Authentic Fruit Profiles for Artisanal Kombucha

    Client: Vitality Brews

    The Challenge

    Vitality Brews struggled to maintain consistent fruit flavor notes throughout the fermentation process, resulting in batch-to-batch variation and loss of top notes.

    The Solution

    We implemented our “Ginger strawberry” natural flavor from the Clear Flavours collection. This heat-stable and acid-resistant formulation ensured the bright, spicy-sweet profile remained intact post-fermentation.

    THE RESULTS

    • Eliminated flavor variability across batches.
    • Preserved the probiotic integrity of the beverage.
    • Increased shelf appeal with a distinct, stable aroma.

    Creating a Shelf-Stable, Natural Orange Juice Flavor

    Client: Sunburst Juices

    The Challenge

    Sunburst Juices was struggling with their 100% natural orange juice flavor turning bitter and losing its fresh aroma after pasteurization and during its shelf life.

    The Solution

    Piffany’s beverage lab provided a custom-encapsulated natural orange flavor. This technology protected the delicate top-notes during heat treatment and released them upon consumption. We also incorporated a natural citrus extract to act as an antioxidant, preventing flavor degradation over time.

    THE RESULTS

    • Maintained a "freshly-squeezed" flavor profile for a 9-month shelf life.
    • Reduced flavor fade by 40% compared to the previous solution in accelerated testing.
    • Allowed for a "100% Natural Flavor" claim on the packaging, boosting consumer appeal.

    Balancing Flavor in a Tart Kombucha Base

    Client: Zen Ferments

    The Challenge

    Zen Ferments wanted to launch a new Ginger-Lemon kombucha, but their natural extracts were creating a harsh, overly acidic flavor profile when combined with the naturally tart fermented tea base.

    The Solution

    We developed a water-soluble ginger-lemon flavor system that was specifically pH-balanced for fermented beverages. It included natural masking agents to round out the sharp acidic notes and a specialized ginger extract that provided warmth without excessive spiciness.

    THE RESULTS

    • Achieved a perfectly balanced, refreshing flavor profile that complemented the kombucha's natural tang
    • The flavor system remained stable and clear, with no sedimentation throughout the product's shelf life.
    • Increased consumer preference scores by 50% in taste panels against their prototype.

    Creating an Indulgent Vanilla Yoghurt

    Client: DairyFresh Co.

    The Challenge

    DairyFresh’s new line of drinking yogurts was suffering from syneresis (whey separation), creating an unappealing watery layer on top within a week of production.

    The Solution

    Our team recommended the “Vanilla yoghurt” flavor. This variant is designed to enhance the natural fermented notes of the yogurt while adding a smooth, sweet, creamy vanilla background.

    THE RESULTS

    • Won a regional award for "Best Flavored Yogurt".
    • Increased repeat purchase rates by 25%.
    • Achieved a "cleaner" taste profile preferred by families.
