The new guidance document, called ‘Industry Guidelines on “Regulation (EC) No. 1334/2008 on flavourings and certain food ingredients with flavouring properties for use in and on foods”’, is available online at http://www.ciaa.eu/asp/documents/l1.asp?doc_id=940.
The new rules came into effect on 20 January 2011. The guide includes illustrative examples to demonstrate the rules in action, particularly in respect of labelling, as well as key definitions and tables indicating scope and timescale.
