Sensient Flavors & Extracts Introduces BioSymphony 

An innovative portfolio of natural flavor compounds created through biotransformation using nature’s finest ingredients 

HOFFMAN ESTATES, Illinois – June 25, 2025 – Sensient Flavors & Extracts proudly announces the launch of BioSymphony™, an innovative portfolio of natural flavors crafted directly from nature’s finest ingredients. BioSymphony delivers authentic, high-impact flavor solutions to meet the evolving needs of food and beverage manufacturers. 

BioSymphony provides a powerful addition to the product developer’s toolbox. “We like to call it ‘complexification’,” says Steve Morris, President of Sensient Flavors & Extracts. “BioSymphony takes simple ingredients to the next level and enables you to do more with less.” 

Versatile across a wide range of food and beverage applications, BioSymphony is globally recognized as a natural flavor—eliminating the need for special regional labeling and simplifying formulations for global brands. 

As the name suggests, BioSymphony is the fusion of art and science, enabling developers to compose a flavorful masterpiece. This true-to-nature process creates vibrant, authentic taste experiences that resonate with today’s conscious consumers. 

BioSymphony delivers value in three strategic ways: 

  1. Premiumization 
    BioSymphony enhances products with deeper, more sophisticated flavors, helping them stand out in crowded markets. For example, it can make processed tomatoes taste like they’ve been stewed for hours. 
  1. Flavor Expansion 
    By adding nuance and tonal complexity to existing flavors, BioSymphony helps developers unlock new dimensions in their current flavor library. 
  1. Ingredient Challenge Solutions 
    BioSymphony boosts the performance of key ingredients, allowing developers to reduce or replace premium, scarce, or production-limiting ingredients while preserving the intended flavor impact. BioSymphony also allows for the rebalancing of a product’s flavor profile when using taste challenging ingredients, like pea protein. 

We’re using nature’s instruments to create taste harmony,” says Suja Senan, PhD, Senior Innovation Scientist II and lead developer of BioSymphony. “Just as a string quartet is beautiful, a full symphony orchestra brings a piece to life—filling the senses and connecting emotionally. That’s what BioSymphony does with flavor.”
