Tobacco sauces and flavors are intended for the improvement of the taste-flavour quality of the tobacco. Tobacco saucing aims at:
 

• Improving the moisture-retaining qualities of the tobacco;
• Improving the combustive and smoking qualities-i.e. improving the flavour and the taste of the tobacco smoke
   

The composition of the sauces includes moisture-retaining and taste-improving substances. For the improvement of the taste of the tobacco smoke in the sauces are added sweetening substances in the form of extracts from different plants and fruits.
