MycoTechnology, Inc., has announced that its new ClearHT™ natural flavor has received Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) status from the Flavor and Extract Manufacturers Association (FEMA) for use as a flavor with modifying properties (FMP) in multiple food and beverage categories. 

Discovered from the honey truffle, a unique species of fungi with a rich history of use, ClearHT™ natural flavor is the newest addition to MycoTechnology’s portfolio of innovative taste solutions. At low inclusion levels, it enhances flavors such as citrus and caramel, and offers new ways to modulate sweetness, helping to address continued consumer demand for better-tasting, healthier products. It will be available for use in markets that recognize FEMA GRAS determinations by early 2026.

Our team has continued to demonstrate exceptional progress in scale-up, safety validation, and applications development in preparation for commercial availability.
