TFA Blackberry
- Free shipping on all orders over $150
Flavour Profile
TFA Blackberry delivers a bold, ripe blackberry character that is dark, juicy, and deeply fruity — capturing the full, slightly tart sweetness of freshly picked blackberries at peak ripeness. It has a natural berry depth with a subtle earthy undertone that gives it authenticity and complexity, avoiding the flat, one-dimensional quality of lesser berry concentrates. It is rich enough to stand alone as a primary flavour and versatile enough to complement other berries, stone fruits, and cream profiles in more complex blends.
Applications
- Beverages – Flavoured waters, sodas, blackberry lemonade, cocktails, and energy drinks
- Confectionery – Blackberry gummies, hard lollies, and berry-flavoured chewables
- Baking & Desserts – Cakes, tarts, frostings, custards, and blackberry-flavoured creams
- Dairy & Frozen – Ice cream, sorbet, milkshakes, and flavoured yoghurts
- DIY Flavouring – Standalone or layered with raspberry, blueberry, cream, or lemon concentrates
