Why Natural Licorice Flavor Concentrate
Natural Licorice Flavor Concentrate delivers licorice flavor made with natural ingredients and no artificial flavors or colors. Its water-soluble form blends smoothly into drinks, syrups, and other water-based recipes. A growing number of customers read labels and look for natural flavors over artificial ones, and a business that offers a natural licorice flavor can meet that demand. It is a natural licorice-flavored concentrate for businesses and families who want to avoid artificial flavors and additives, for a delicious licorice taste in every batch.
Licorice Flavor Concentrate for Candy
Licorice Flavor Concentrate is a licorice flavoring for candy that brings a sweet, bold licorice taste to gummy candy, hard candy, fruit snacks, and gelatin treats. Its water-soluble form mixes evenly into candy and gelatin bases, and its high strength means a small amount delivers plenty of flavor. For chocolate, choose a flavor oil, since chocolate calls for an oil-soluble flavor.
Licorice Flavor Concentrate for Ice Cream
This concentrate is a licorice 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 little goes a long way. Use it in milk shakes and yogurt too, for licorice flavor in every scoop. Blend it into the base before freezing for even flavor.
Licorice Flavor Concentrate for Sodas & Drinks
Our natural licorice concentrate brings licorice 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 small dose is enough to carry the flavor, which suits beverage makers working at volume.
Note: Concentrates may turn clear drinks cloudy. For a clearer result, consider our Licorice Flavor Extract.
