Food flavours are natural or artificial compounds added to food to improve or modify its taste and fragrance, whereas flavour enhancers are substances added to food to heighten or enhance its current flavours.

Food flavours and flavour enhancers are commonly employed in a variety of food products such as snacks, beverages, dairy products, bread products, and confectionery.
"COVID-19 Impact: Pandemic has had Mixed Impact on the Market Demand"
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on the food flavour and flavour enhancers business. Global lockdowns, travel restrictions, and supply chain interruptions have posed hurdles for manufacturers and suppliers in this business. Restaurant, café, and foodservice outlet closures, as well as a shift in consumer behaviour towards home cooking, resulted in a decrease in demand for flavor-enhanced and processed food products. However, there has been a greater emphasis on home-cooked meals and the discovery of new flavours, which has resulted in a rise in demand for retail packaged foods and ingredients. Furthermore, the pandemic has increased the emphasis on health and wellness, fueling demand for natural and clean-label flavour solutions.
