Ethyl vanillin CAS：121-32-4

First and foremost, Ethyl vanillin is a high-intensity synthetic aromatic aldehyde flavoring agent with CAS 121-32-4. It delivers rich, creamy vanilla and sweet milk caramel aroma, with flavor intensity 3–4 times stronger than ordinary vanillin. For this reason, food flavor factories, bakery manufacturers, perfume houses and e-liquid producers widely adopt this premium aroma raw material for multi-scene formulation lines.

To start with, ethyl vanillin appears as white fine crystalline powder with prominent sweet vanilla and milky fragrance. In addition, it dissolves fully in ethanol, propylene glycol and vegetable oils, moderately soluble in hot water and barely soluble in cold water. Meanwhile, light-proof sealed cool storage stabilizes its aroma profile and prevents yellow discoloration. On the contrary, long-term exposure to high temperature and strong UV light will cause oxidation, weaken fragrance thickness and generate off-notes. Besides that, our finished product reaches HPLC purity above 99.5% and meets FCC, FEMA and food additive safety standards.

We select high-purity guaiacol derivatives as core synthetic feedstock. Firstly, raw intermediates undergo multi-stage decolorization and residual solvent removal. Next, controlled ethoxylation and formylation reactions form standard ethyl vanillin molecular structure under low-temperature sealed conditions. After that, repeated recrystallization and vacuum low-temperature drying eliminate unreacted impurities. Furthermore, each finished batch passes strict HPLC purity, sensory panel evaluation and heavy metal testing before delivery. Thus, stable qualified Ethyl vanillin is ready for global bulk shipment.

Compared with vanillin and o-vanillin, ethyl vanillin boasts far stronger vanilla-milk aroma with outstanding caramel layering, greatly reducing required dosage in formulas. In addition, it retains stable fragrance during high-temperature baking and extrusion without rapid aroma volatilization. Moreover, food-grade and cosmetic dual grades satisfy edible flavor compounding and gourmand perfume base note blending separately. Meanwhile, uniform fine crystal particles enable accurate weighing and even dispersion in liquid and powder bases.

For instance, it amplifies rich milk vanilla taste in cookies, cakes, chocolate, ice cream and milk powder to enhance creamy sweetness.

Blend trace ethyl vanillin into gourmand, woody and cream perfumes as long-lasting warm base note to boost skin retention.

Beyond bakery and perfume usage, this high-potency aroma crystal adds thick sweet vanilla layers to vape juice, hard candy and carbonated drink flavor bases.
