Flavoring refers to any substance or mixture added to food or drinks to enhance their taste, aroma and overall sensory experience. These can be natural flavorings derived from fruits, vegetables, herbs, spices or other plant sources, as well as artificial flavors created in a laboratory using chemical compounds. Flavoring agents are used in various food products such as baked goods, confectionery items, snacks, beverages and processed foods to improve their taste and make them more appealing to consumers.
