Bio-based Succinic acid is a non-hygroscopic acidulant of relatively low acid strength. Its apparent taste characteristics are very similar to the other acidulants of this type. So there is some evidence that it has a rather slow taste build-up. It gives a much greater latitude in the formulation of powdered foods and beverages. It has a much greater solubility in water at room temperature than the other non-deliquescent acids.

It is one of the natural acids found in foods such as broccoli, rhubarb, sugar beets, fresh meat extracts, various cheeses, and sauerkraut. All of these products have very distinct and marked flavours. This may be due in part to a flavour enhancement by the small amounts naturally present. This would suggest that it might have some interesting effects on various flavours. So that cannot be duplicated with other food acids.
