The present invention relates to a flavour composition having: one or more flavouring substances; and one or more taste improving substances selected from substances according to formula (I): CH<SUB>2</SUB>OH-(CHOH)<SUB>4</SUB>-CO-NH-CH<SUB>2</SUB>-X wherein X represents -OH, -O(CO)R, -OPO<SUB>3</SUB>H<SUB>2</SUB>, -PO<SUB>3</SUB>H<SUB>2</SUB>, -OSO<SUB>3</SUB>H or -SO<SUB>3</SUB>H, and R represents a C<SUB>2</SUB>-C<SUB>10 </SUB>group having at least one carboxylic acid group; and edible salts thereof, wherein, in case the flavour composition contains N-gluconyl ethanolamine or a salt thereof, the weight ratio of the taste improving substances and the flavouring substances is less than 50:1. The invention furthermore concerns substances according to formula (I) wherein X represents -O(CO)R, -OPO<SUB>3</SUB>H<SUB>2</SUB>, -PO<SUB>3</SUB>H<SUB>2</SUB>, -OSO<SUB>3</SUB>H or -SO<SUB>3</SUB>H, and R represents a C<SUB>2</SUB>-C<SUB>10 </SUB>group having at least one carboxylic acid group; and edible salts thereof.
