Food grade aerogels are used for the impregnation of flavor with the help of supercritical carbon dioxide technology. One or more food grade materials are used for the formation of a food grade aerogel. Supercritical carbon dioxide technology is used both for formation of the aerogel and for impregnating of the formed aerogel with a flavor. Resulting food grade aerogels possess a high flavor loading capacity of up to about 70%, which is well above the average loading capacity of the most common flavor encapsulation technology via spray drying (which are about 20% capacity loading), while maintain the integrity of flavors, particularly top notes.
