In addition to at least one aroma component and/or a solvent, the aromatising agent contains at least 0.0001% by weight, based on the total weight, of an alkyl 2,3-dihydro-3-(1-hydroxyalkylidene)-2-oxo-5-alkylfuran-4-carboxylate of the formula I, in which R1 denotes straight-chain or branched alkyl having 1-5 C atoms and R2 denotes straight-chain or branched alkyl having 1-6 C atoms, cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl. The compound of the formula I imparts a markedly improved taste to a great number of aromatising agents. <IMAGE> |
