Default Manipulating Tomato Flavor?

Does anybody know any tricks to manipulate the flavor of a tomato, during the growth process?

In general, I love a VERY tomato-y taste. More specifically, a "sweet and savory" taste. Very close to the flavor of Prego spaghetti sauce I guess you could say. lol.

So normally, I prefer the red tomatoes (the darker the better) or even the black and purple ones. Especially heirloom.

The smaller tomatoes (like cherry) seem to be the closest to what I'm looking for. But I'm trying to get bigger tomatoes to taste more like that.

Any ideas? Is it possible? Or is it more about breed, than growing tricks?
