https://jupiterfragrances.com is now ready for orders. Buy esters
https://jupiterfragrances.com
I make rare esters as a hobby so I experience their smells for myself. This website lets others experience the smells too, and reimburses the cost of
the hobby
Not for food or cosmetics use. Do not drink or apply to skin. Keep out of reach of children

Congratulations on getting this up and running Cou, that is a very impressive website!
I have recently been getting into soup making with my kids, which started as a good Covid lock down activity and has continued.
It seems a pretty popular activity and it made me wonder if there was a potential market for you in that, but then I saw that you say they are not for
cosmetic use. Is there a reason for this? I am guessing you need some sort of certification if you want to sell something that will either be consumed
or used cosmetically?
Anyway, best of luck with it!

There are 3 kinds of IFRA certificates...
1: something that you breathe in (e.g. making candles out of the esters)
2: something you put on your body (e.g. lotions)
3: something you put in food (e.g. flavorings)
however I can't find any analytical companies that issue IFRA certificates.

These guys are listed as able to do the certification testing on the IFRA web site, but no doubt you have explored that already.

Otherwise they are all UK and Europe, I guess that is where most fragrances are developed.

Oh, SOAP making. See it took me a while there. At first I was picturing you mixing up bit pots of soup with your kids and wondering why in the world
you’d want to be adding raw esters as an ingredient!

Ha ha ha ha, oh dear.
How else do you get that fruity flavour into your soup?
Please no one call child services, I did in fact mean soap.
