Abstract

Provided herein is a composition comprising: a) about 25% up to about 75% of a plasmolysed micro-organism by weight of the total weight of the composition; b) about at least greater than 20% up to about 60% by weight flavor or fragrance, of the total weight of the composition c) about 1% up to about 25% desiccant; d) about 4% up to about <10% water; wherein the mean particle size distribution by weight of the composition is about greater than 100 micrometer up to about 1 millimeter. Also provided herein is a method of making a plated yeast composition comprising a. blending: i) a homogenous cake, wherein the cake is made by mixing, at a temperature that ranges from 20° C. to about 90° C. a) a plasmolysed micro-organism in an amount of from about 0.01% to about 90% by weight of the total weight of the cake; b) a flavor or fragrance oil provided in an amount of from at least 0.01% up to about 60% by weight of the total weight of the cake; and c) water provided in an amount of from about 5% up to about 90% by weight of the total weight of the cake; wherein the micro-organism to water ratio in the cake is provided in an amount, by weight, of about 4.5:1 to 0.5:1; with ii) at least about 40% up to about 99.9%, by weight desiccant, of the total weight of the composition; iii) optionally from about 0.2 to about 2% by weight a flow agent of the total weight of the composition to form a uniform mixer. b. sifting the blended mixer to form a powder with a particle size about 100 to 1,000 micrometer.
