periods. This is particularly useful in cakes, pastries, and bread. during the baking
process, triacetin ensures that the final product has a rich, consistent flavour.

test of beverages. It enhances the stability of flavour compounds, preventing them from
degrading over time, which is essential for maintaining the quality and shelf life of
flavoured beverages.
In milk-based products such as flavoured milk, yogurt, ice cream and chocolate triacetin is
used to solubilize flavour oils, ensuring they blend well with the dairy base and provide a
uniform taste.
