What it is

Coconut flavor is a flavoring agent that mimics the taste and aroma of coconut. It can be derived from natural sources like coconut itself or created synthetically. Artificial coconut flavors are often made from compounds found in other natural sources, such as vanilla or fruit extracts.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use coconut flavor to add a tropical or sweet note to a wide variety of foods and beverages. It is commonly found in baked goods, candies, dairy products, and beverages.

Health notes

Coconut flavor, whether natural or artificial, is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a flavoring. Regulatory bodies like the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated many flavoring substances. At typical consumption levels, these flavors are not associated with adverse health effects. Research on the long-term effects of consuming artificial flavors is ongoing.

Allergen info

Coconut flavor is not derived from any of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
