PROVA’s Extracts & Flavors
PROVA focuses on natural, organic, and sustainable extracts and flavors, with four core pillars – Vanilla, Cocoa, Coffee, and Caramel. These pillars bring together a comprehensive selection of natural extracts and flavorings in liquid and powder forms.
VANILLA: PROVA’s vanilla extracts provide different solubilities suitable for food and beverage products. Our portfolio meets taste and certification needs, offering a range of sustainable products committed to supporting Madagascar. PROVANIL©, a unique technology, that provides an alternative to vanillin and ethylvanillin, is designed for products rich in fat. Vanilla powder brings the taste and appearance of the vanilla bean to various products.
COCOA: PROVA’s cocoa extracts and flavorings, 5 to 8 times more powerful than cocoa powder, offer technical solutions that reduce the quantity of traditional cocoa powder used, improve consistency, and provide an authentic aromatic signature.
COFFEE: PROVA’s coffee range offers extracts and flavors from different varieties and origins, reflecting the global coffee culture. Offering tailored technologies for each application ensures a rich and powerful coffee flavor in various applications.

NUT NOTES: PROVA’s nut range includes core nut flavors and nut-free options, providing delicious nut notes without concerns of allergens.
DAIRY NOTES: PROVA’s dairy range offers diverse aromatic characteristics for strengthening dairy notes or creating unique signature tastes. These flavors are ideal for plant-based and vegan alternatives that may lack creamy notes.
