HOW TO MIMIC NATURE: Making synthetic flavoring A good cherry is supposed to be tough to formulate. Here is an example of a *minimum* synthetic cherry flavoring: ethyl methyl p-tolyl glycidate 16.0 % iso-amyl acetate 12.0 % iso-butyl acetate 12.0 % p-methyl benzyl acetate 11.0 % benzaldehyde 8.0 % vanillin 7.0 % benzyl alkcohol 5.5 % piperonal 5.0 % ethyl caprate 4.0 % cinnamic aldehyde dimethyl acetal 3.0 % p-tolyl aldehyde 3.0 % cinnamyl anthranilate 3.0 % ethyl caproate 2.0 % geranyl butyrate 2.0 % terpenyl butyrate 0.5 %
