Ascentra™ Flavor Enhancers

A Healthy, Cost-saving Solution

Ascentra™ Sodium-Reducing Flavor Enhancer is a clean label, powdered ingredient that naturally amplifies the perception of salt and other savory nuances in a broad range of food systems as it lowers sodium content. By enhancing existing savory flavors, Ascentra yields a richer, more rounded flavor than is available through traditional, all-salt formulations.

Ascentra provides opportunities to lower ingredient costs as well, by replacing higher-cost ingredients with more economical ones. This healthy, versatile ingredient helps optimize your processed food and menu item formulations.

Made from a proprietary, whole-milked based fermentation process, Ascentra contains no monosodium glutamate (MSG), hydrolysed vegetable protein (HVP), or yeast extract.
