How does HFCS serve as a flavor enhancer? |
 HFCS is described as having an “early” sweetness profile, which enhances the flavors in foods and beverages. This means that when HFCS is consumed, the sweetness is detected rapidly by human taste buds, or “early” in the tasting process, but the sweetness does not linger. As the sweetness of HFCS subsides, other flavors such as fruit, citrus and spice are experienced more clearly and completely. It is the crispness and clarity of its sweetness profile that allows HFCS to enhance other flavors.
