Z3US from Lyon's Regency Line is a bright, citrusy dessert flavor: fresh lemon meringue tart, combined with a creamy vanilla-lime crème and a hint of powdered sugar on the finish. Zesty, creamy, sweet-sour, and distinctly "Bakery" – like a modern fine-dining lemon dessert plate, compressed into a highly concentrated food flavor.
Flavor Profile
Lemon Meringue Pie
Bright, fresh lemon cream with a distinct but rounded acidity, accompanied by a sweet, fluffy meringue association. No dish soap lemon, but dessert lemon.
Vanilla Lime Crème
Creamy, soft vanilla crème with a lime twist – smooths out the lemon, adds depth, and makes the profile richer and rounder, instead of just sour-sweet.
Powdered Sugar Finish
Fine sweetness on the finish, like a light dusting of powdered sugar over a tartlet – rounds off acidity & cream without making everything sticky.
Application
Highly concentrated food flavor – a few drops are enough to, for example:
-
Bring creams, mousses, yogurts & desserts in glasses towards a lemon meringue/lemon tart profile.
-
Enhance cheesecakes, cake fillings, frostings & glazes with a clear lemon-vanilla-lime dessert profile.
-
Provide ice cream, sorbets, or semifreddo with an elegant, sweet-sour lemon dessert character.
Especially important: dose carefully – Z3US is distinctly lemony. Too much and the acidity will dominate.
