A natural clean label taste enhancer
Umami base
Kingusto introduces and enhances umami flavour in your product. Umami is a pleasant savoury taste produced by glutamate and ribonucleotides that occur naturally in foods, including mushrooms. The ribonucleotides inosinate and guanylate do not activate the umami taste receptors in the mouth on their own, but they amplify the umami sensation caused by glutamate. Kingusto contains all those molecules, and that makes Kingusto so powerful.
Intensifies the taste
Kingusto intensifies the flavour of your product, making it rounder and more balanced. Kingusto makes the taste buds more receptive to salty, savoury and sweet tastes. Because Kingusto enhances taste, it can replace MSG or yeast extract.
Kingusto’s potential in product applications
Kingusto intensifies sweet and salty tastes, which means that those flavours must already be present in your product. In several applications, salt reductions of up to 50% and sugar reductions of up to 25% are feasible.
The effects of Kingusto are well-proven in a broad range of product applications, while no mushroom flavour is introduced to those applications.
