Artificial flavors are restricted to an ingredient which was manufactured by a process of synthesis or similar process and added to food. The principal components of artificial flavors usually are esters, ketones, and aldehyde groups. These ingredients are declared in the ingredients statement as âArtificial Flavorsâ without naming the individual components. When the same esters, ketones and aldehydes are obtained from natural sources it is labelled Natural Flavoring.
