Plating, like spray drying, has been around for 100 years. Both processes destroy flavor just in a different way. Heat during spray drying distorts and evaporates the flavor while plating creates a large surface area to expose the flavor to air and in the process evaporates the aroma. Sounds silly, but it makes sense when your best alternative to plating is a spray drying process is damaging and more expensive. Until today. A recent study by Zoom’s team of scientists, physicists and engineers have published a study comparing plating to our Zooming process. Take a read and call us, you will never want to plate an aromatic, sensitive, volatile material again.
