Griffith Foods has launched Infuso, a natural, flavored oil that is poised to shake up the snacking sector and aid manufacturers in “their quest for an outstanding snacking experience.” 

The Griffith Foods innovation team has created a solution that delivers intense, bold flavors and can create multi-flavored profiles in savory snacks.

Transforming flavors 
Infuso provides a “clear breakthrough” as a single-step innovation that can transform the flavor profiles of any snack, says Johan Boot, vice president, product development and innovation, Griffith Foods Europe. 

“Customers can experiment with a variety of processes as well as salt reduction and gluten elimination, which strengthen health profiles.”

“Its heavy concentrations mean easy, efficient transport and fewer storage requirements make Infuso a highly sustainable choice and one we expect to make a very positive impact for our customers, globally.”

The company can co-develop the right flavors together, proven by its sensory capabilities and driven by consumer insights.

Griffith Foods’ product range offers flavored oils in various flavor buckets, from green herbs to chili-flavored oil and even a Peking duck-style. 

A two-step process
According to the company, the standard two-step seasoning process is replaced by a smoother, less complex single-step application. 

Infuso replaces the oil that is sprayed on the snack substrate before seasoning. It can be used without disruption or extra cost as it requires a single sprayer, often already installed.

And it can be applied to a vast range of snacks, including premium crisps, veggie extruded snacks, pop chips, breadsticks, pretzels, rice cakes, nuts, seeds and tortillas, says Griffith Foods. 

In May, Synergy Flavors acquired savory flavor and ingredient supplier Innova Flavors from Griffith Foods Worldwide.

Prior to this, Griffith Foods, Yıldız Holding and Ingredion became part of Sente Foundry’s FoodTech: Health & Wellness start-up program.
