Cheese Applications

Capturing authentic taste, mouthfeel, and melting properties in dairy, dairy-free, lactose-free, and vegan cheese applications requires specialized expertise. With over a century of focus on delivering the true taste of dairy, and more than 40 years of pioneering solutions in the plant-based and vegan space, Edlong offers you the industry’s broadest collection of cheese flavor technology profiles and customization capabilities.

Collaboration That Drives Innovation for Cheeses

The authentic flavor technology of cheese can make almost any side dish, snack, or meal more delicious. Edlong flavor technologies can build richness, mouthfeel, and overall dairy base notes, as well as bring out signature characteristics – like sharpness, age, lipolytic qualities, or even fruitiness – to create a more authentic cheese experience. Our flavor technologies can also elevate taste in analog cheeses, including vegan cheeses. Whether you are working on regional or global applications, our team is ready to collaborate with you to deliver the perfect solution.

Working with plant-based cheeses has garnered a deep appreciation for dairy fermentation within my work. There’s a science to the process, and the result is an authentic taste and mouthfeel experience.
