How do you use flavor extracts?

Start with about 0.25% to 4% by weight of the overall recipe, and build gradually. Finding the perfect amount of a natural flavor extract for your recipe is an art form and requires practice! Natural extracts are highly concentrated, so start with less than you think you need and add more if desired. Natural extracts develop and bloom in your recipes, so what seems subtle during mixing often intensifies beautifully in the finished product. This measured approach creates balanced, crave-worthy flavors that keep customers coming back for more Our natural and organic extracts are potent. If you notice a minty, medicinal taste on your palate, or find yourself still tasting the flavor an hour after enjoying your creation, you've crossed the line from perfectly flavored to over-extracted. The art of using natural flavor extracts lies in restraint. You want to tease the taste buds, not overwhelm them. Signs you've over-flavored: Persistent flavor that lingers long after eating Overpowering taste that masks other ingredients Minty or cooling sensation on the palate Our natural flavor extracts are remarkably versatile beyond basic baking: Baking: Add to cake batters, cookie dough, frostings, and pastry creams. Start with recipe recommendations (typically ½-2 teaspoons) and adjust to taste. Natural extracts provide richer flavor than artificial alternatives, so you may need less than conventional recipes suggest. Beverages: Enhance coffee, hot chocolate, smoothies, cocktails, and homemade sodas with 2-3 drops per serving for clean, authentic flavor. No-bake desserts: Stir into whipped cream, yogurt, puddings, and ice cream bases for instant flavor transformation without artificial aftertaste. Breakfast foods: Elevate pancakes, waffles, french toast, and oatmeal with a splash during preparation. Savory applications: Some extracts (like almond or coconut) complement marinades, sauces, and glazes in unexpected ways. Food and beverage manufacturers, caterers, restaurants, bakers, brewers, and more will love using our natural flavorings and extracts to enhance the flavor profile of their desserts, culinary creations, alcoholic beverages, or products.

Artificial extracts are synthesized in laboratories using chemical compounds to mimic natural flavors. While less expensive, they lack the complexity and depth of natural ingredients and may contain synthetic additives. Natural extracts are derived from natural ingredients. Nature’s Flavors’ natural extracts contain complex flavor compounds that create depth and nuance in your recipes, delivering authentic taste with the integrity your customers deserve. Which is better? Nature's Flavors' natural extracts deliver superior flavor, clean ingredients, and no artificial chemicals.

Nature's Flavors

Our Organic Vanilla Extract is a family tradition that dates back to the 1930s. We start with the finest Grade A Madagascar beans and grind them to a fine mesh. Next, we add organic alcohol and organic sugar for sweetness. Finally, we mix in a lot of love and age the entire mixture for up to two weeks in our special aging extractor tanks.
