With the rising awareness of adulteration and health hazards due to synthetic food ingredients, consumers have shown a preference to pay more for certified organic food products.

Natural flavors that are compliant with the USDA National Organic Program can be certified as organic flavors. USDA Organic Certification helps organic product producers quote a relevant premium price, along with access to the fast-growing local, regional, and international markets. The USDA monitors and conducts audits for food products certified as organic to ensure that the farms or facilities of the certified products comply with the USDA’s organic standards.

Restraints: Lower stability
Natural flavors are highly unstable and volatile as compared to the nature-identical or synthetic flavors. Conventionally, natural flavors, being perishable in nature, are unstable during processing, handling, and storage when compared to synthetic flavors; they are unstable to variations in pH, temperature, and light. Natural flavors are volatile to heat, and at higher temperatures, there is a possibility that the flavor will be lost. The dosages of natural flavorings used in frozen and baked products are higher to compensate for its loss at low and high temperatures. This serves as a restraint for the natural flavors market.

Due to their volatile nature, chances of flavor loss during food processing increase. Moreover, natural flavors are expensive due to the limited availability of raw material and high processing costs. Small-scale food manufacturers find this as a non-economical option due to higher raw material costs and losses of flavors. This factor eventually reduces the profit margins for the food processing companies, thereby restraining the market growth.
