Citron Flavor Concentrate for Baking

Citron Flavor Concentrate is a citron flavoring for baking that adds a bright, zesty citron taste to pie filling, cake batter, cookies, and fruit snacks. It holds its flavor through the oven, which makes it a strong choice for pies, cakes, and other baked goods, and it works well in cream cheese and marshmallow frosting. Begin with a small amount and add more to taste, since it is highly concentrated.

Citron Flavor Concentrate for Ice Cream

This concentrate is a citron flavoring for ice cream, gelato, and ice pops. Its water-soluble form blends smoothly into dairy and non-dairy bases, and its high strength means a small amount delivers plenty of flavor. Use it in milk shakes and yogurt too, for citron flavor in every scoop. Blend it into the base before freezing for even flavor.

Citron Flavor Concentrate for Sodas & Drinks

Our organic citron concentrate brings citron flavor to sodas, sparkling drinks, juice blends, and kombucha. Blend it into a simple syrup for fountain-style sodas, or stir it straight into still or sparkling drinks and mocktails served by the glass. A little goes a long way, which suits beverage makers working at volume.

Note: Concentrates may turn clear drinks cloudy. For a clearer result, consider our Citron Flavor Extract.

Organic Citron Flavor Concentrate

Our organic citron concentrate suits manufacturers and producers who make certified organic products and need the same citron flavor batch after batch, from test runs to full production. The concentrated format means a small dose per batch, which keeps flavoring cost-effective at scale, and the water-soluble form blends into water-based recipes. Smaller organic bakeries, cafés, and shops get the same citron flavor in sizes that fit their volume. It also holds up in baked production, where flavor has to survive the oven.
