Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is an inert carrier for flavor, oil soluble food colorants, fat soluble vitamins and fat soluble additives. Manufactured to the best clean organoleptic quality for flavoring agents, to ensure
excellent keeping qualities and compatibility with sensitive flavors. Superb colorless properties for transparency and enhancing natural color.
Miscible in more polar solvents such as alcohols, even in the presence of water.
Good spreading properties for bakeries coating, mould release and lubricating production transport system.

The superb color & odor makes it a good emollient for cosmetics & toiletries.
