TruMask™

Bitter blocker that enhances sweetness 

The Perfect Curve of Subtle Sweetness

TruMask™ bitter blocker is the next generation of taste enhancement technology. TruMask™ enhances bitter blocking capabilities by also providing a near instantaneous sweetness on the tongue that naturally rounds out the flavor profile. TruMask™ can be used in unison with sweeteners or as a stand alone to bring a hint of sweetness while blocking negative taste attributes. 

We tend to recommend TruMask™ for sugar-free products and with products looking to strengthen their sweetness profile. TruMask™ bitter blocker performs well in traditional mediums where you would have originally found ample sugar. In fact, TruMask™ bitter blocker can reduce customers’ needs for sugar and sugar substitutes through its ability to enhance sweetness. TruMask™ is able to stimulate sweetness receptors while masking negative flavors.

TruMask™ bitter blocker is available in various concentrations to meet your project needs.

TruMask™ is listed as a Natural Flavor.
