Flavor is a combination of mouthfeel, taste and aroma. Many of the flavors in ice cream are identified by taste. This is accomplished by tasting the product and permitting the volatile flavor of the product in the mouth to pass over the taste buds and the olfactory organs in the back of the nostrils (Arbuckle, 1986). One then becomes familiar and experienced with a flavor and gains the ability to recognize it by memory whenever it occurs.
