Flavour / Flavoured

I have read many times that if something is x-flavoured it must contain some real x whereas something that is x-flavour just has to contain something that tastes like x. This seems not always to be the case. Do different rules apply to different foodstuffs?
For example
"Flavour / flavoured
It is important to realise that the words 'flavour' and 'flavoured' have different meanings. For example, orange flavoured sweets derive their flavour from real oranges, but orange flavour sweets are synthetically flavoured."

However...
Brandy flavour sauce containing brandy.
Chicken flavoured rice that is suitable for vegetarians.
